3D printing with a wood-based ink
Researchers have succeeded in 3D printing with a wood-based ink in a way that mimics the unique 'ultrastructure' of wood. Their research could revolutionise the manufacturing of green products.8 Jul 2019
Deep-CEE: The AI tool helping astronomers explore deep space
Galaxy clusters are some of the most massive structures in the cosmos, but despite being millions of lightyears across, they can still be hard to spot. Researchers have turned to artificial intelligence for assistance, developing "Deep-CEE" (Deep Learning for Galaxy Cluster Extraction and Evaluation), a novel deep learning technique to speed up the process of finding them.26 Jun 2019

Skeleton Technologies
a ramp up phase through power quality applications like UPS, then in full scale with the transport and industrial sector. This means they are realistic about the development time for their product to be accepted in the transport sector for example.
The company seems to know well, where high power supercapacitor applications can be drive growth.
On Mr. Madiberk words:"Although the market is growing at a 30% rate, additional growth has been stalled by the lack of high energy and power densities needed by high-performance applications"
The company recently procured funding for an additional investment round.
