An exploding star, for example, blasts out huge quantities of material into space at exceedingly high speed. That ejecta slams into so much of the interstellar medium so hard that sufficient numbers ...

Private listening out in the open is possible thanks to acoustic metasurfaces that precisely bend and direct sound waves.

By comparison, BOSSA transforms sound waves into spikes of input that the algorithm can process, similar to how the cochlea ...

With advanced technology and artificial intelligence, we are now able to listen to these cosmic whispers in ways that were ...

Led by Professor Daniel Ahmed, researchers transformed ordinary fabrics into smart sensors that detect touch, pressure, and ...

Could Sound Waves Sing Away Your Stubborn Bits? The eternal quest for a slimmer silhouette has a new, rather resonant ...

If you notice sudden hearing loss, you should see an ear, nose, and throat specialist as soon as possible. When your hearing is normal, sound waves enter your outer ear and cause your eardrum and ...

The area of sound is fascinating researchers and after a recent study of bendable sound waves that could result in localised reception, they have now delved into how sound can be used in weight loss.

View Full Profile. Learn about our Editorial Policies. Kumeta wanted to know if the changes in gene expression truly corresponded to the effects of sound waves and if they translated to alterations in ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich develop smart textiles that use acoustic waves instead of electronics to measure touch, pressure and movement precisely. SonoTextiles work with glass microfibres that conduct ...
