Imagine owning a television with the thickness and weight of a sheet of paper. Some day in the near future, it will be possible, thanks to the growing field of printed electronics.
In less than a decade, Clemson University’s International Center for Automotive Research (CU-ICAR) has become a driving force in motor vehicle research and development.
College is a great time to experiment. That’s exactly what the Medical Devices Center (MDC) at the University of Minnesota encourages students to do. The 4,000-square-foot facility promotes interdisciplinary medical device development, including needs assessment, creative brainstorming, prototyping and testing.
Researchers are scrambling to create the next breakthrough in battery technology that will enable electric cars to be more robust and cheaper to mass-produce. A team of engineers at MIT believe they’ve found the solution.
