MIT researchers created a system that enables makers to incorporate sensors directly into rotational mechanisms with only one pass in a 3D printer. This gives rotational mechanisms like gearboxes the ability to sense their angular position, rotation speed, and direction of rotation.
Researchers from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) created a new method for magnetically programming materials to make cubes that are very picky about who they connect with, enabling more scalable self-assembly.
Researchers from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) created a system called MuscleRehab for visualizing muscle engagement and motion data during unsupervised physical rehabilitation.
