Humanoid robots jam live with humans, blending tech and music.


Humanoid robots are stepping into the spotlight, performing live with human musicians, in an interesting study done by researchers.

The robotic band, which included Oscar, a Robotis-OP3 who played the keyboard, and Polaris, a humanoid who drummed, worked in perfect harmony with its human counterparts.

Many seek a path to enlightenment through study and meditation, but what does science tell us about transcendence? And could entire civilizations seek to leave this reality behind?

Portable Power https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/portable-power https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/portable-power#respond Mon, 27 Jan 2025 03:34:25 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/portable-power

Many of the strongest limitations on our technology and civilization at this time are from problems moving energy around with us, in a way which is light, energy dense, and cheap. Today we’ll look at some ways we might increase that vastly, and challenges to do that and the impact such dense portable power would have.

Civilizations At The End Of Time: Eternal Intelligence https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/civilizations-at-the-end-of-time-eternal-intelligence https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/civilizations-at-the-end-of-time-eternal-intelligence#respond Fri, 24 Jan 2025 19:07:24 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/civilizations-at-the-end-of-time-eternal-intelligence

In a universe stretched thin by eons, where stars have long faded and even atoms face their end, a single question remains: can intelligence find a way to outlast time itself?

Shocking! Scientists think the Early Supernovae Created Water In The Universe https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/shocking-scientists-think-the-early-supernovae-created-water-in-the-universe https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/shocking-scientists-think-the-early-supernovae-created-water-in-the-universe#respond Fri, 24 Jan 2025 14:26:27 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/shocking-scientists-think-the-early-supernovae-created-water-in-the-universe

Discover how the first stars—Population III stars—shaped the universe by creating water billions of years ago. Learn how these massive stars exploded as supernovae, spreading oxygen that combined with hydrogen to form water molecules. With insights from simulations and observations, we’ll explore how water’s early abundance could mean life-supporting conditions existed far earlier than thought. Don’t miss this fascinating journey into the origins of water in the cosmos!

Music supports babies in neonatal intensive care units, neuroimaging study finds https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/music-supports-babies-in-neonatal-intensive-care-units-neuroimaging-study-finds https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/music-supports-babies-in-neonatal-intensive-care-units-neuroimaging-study-finds#comments Wed, 22 Jan 2025 22:32:16 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/music-supports-babies-in-neonatal-intensive-care-units-neuroimaging-study-finds

Certain melodies promote brain development in premature infants. For several years, a team of scientists have observed this phenomenon. They now know more precisely which areas of the brain react over time.

Premature infants are more likely to suffer from attention and emotional regulation disorders. For more than a decade, a team has been investigating an unexpected solution to prevent these problems: music. Scientists at the Geneva University Hospitals (HUG) exposed several cohorts of infants born at an average of 29 weeks to music.

Several of their publications, which have been widely covered in the media, underline the potential of this approach. The team’s latest study demonstrates that music boosts cerebral connectivity in the areas of the brain usually affected in preterm infants.
