Researcher and pioneer Martin Fröhlich demonstrates just what this technology is capable of. Revolutionary: Creating useful substances from plastic Two engineers from the ETH Lausanne (EPFL) are revolutionising the recycling of plastic: following the example of proteins, something new and useful is to be created after the decomposition of plastic. “Music makes me a better scientist” Nobody knows the Ebola virus better than Pardis Sabeti. Viral pandemics are her special area of interest. And now, this genetic researcher is looking for a way out of the Covid crisis. Rock music helps her in that. Surfaces that kill viruses Empa researchers have tracked viruses as they pass through face masks and compared their failure on the filter layers of different types of masks. The new method should now accelerate the development of surfaces that can kill viruses. Artificial intelligence is more likely to create jobs than destroy them The use of AI will "probably not" lead to the destruction of jobs, but rather to possible changes in the quality of jobs - especially with regard to work intensity and autonomy. Researchers unveil energy storage concept using a sand cable car Researchers have come up with the vision of a pumped storage power plant of a special kind. Their idea involves a type of cable car that can be used to transport sand or gravel up mountains in order to generate electricity when required by transporting it down the mountain again. Is your machine Self Learning? Inrecent years, few technologies have evolved at the speed of Artificial Intelligence, and in particular at that of Neural Networks. This exponential growth has been achieved mainly due to two factors: Industrial Metaverse It's here: the parallel world of industry. What are the benefits of the Industrial Metaverse? And where does development stand? Urs Reimann, Head of Digital Transformation at Bystronic, provides answers. Space igloo to be tested on Mount Pilatus A habitat for other celestial bodies – this is the goal behind the second edition of the student project “Igluna” sponsored by ESA. In July, the prototype of the habitat will be erected on Mount Pilatus and remote-controlled from the Swiss Museum of Transport in Lucerne. New technology makes home hydrogen fueling stations feasible A new development by the EPFL Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne is providing fresh impetus for the idea of the hydrogen car. The goal behind the technology is to enable small hydrogen fueling stations in private households and thus facilitate the establishment of a comprehensive hydrogen fuel network.
