A new, more computationally efficient way to process data from GPS enhances location accuracy from the meter-level down to just a few centimeters, without increasing the demand for processing power. The application of this accurate location data is critical for emerging technologies such as driverless cars and precision farming

Of the 3,528 different kinds of mosquitos, less than 5 percent are vectors of human disease. Moreover, mosquitos are small - 1,000 mosquitos weigh no more than a penny - and are difficult to detect. By combining the strengths of data mining with inexpensive sensors, this research allows continual reporting of insect counts and their identification, as well as pinpointing locales of active disease agents for targeted suppression.

Learning from the composition and the high potassium salt concentration of portabella mushrooms, researchers have created new type of lithium-ion battery anode that could stop cell pone batteries from degrading over time. With the anticipated increase in batteries needed for electric vehicles and electronics, findings may become a cheaper and sustainable source to replace graphite.

Medical implans assist with recovery but may require a secondary surgery for adjustment or removal. Our implants and devices are made of materials that can break down naturally in the body over time. These materials can aid in the healing process, providing essential nutrients to the body as they are absorbed, and have the potential to reduce medical costs, accelerate recovery and improve the quality of patients' lives.
