India is a developing country where Robotics is still lagging because of the lack of availability of Robotics components, 3D printed parts and suitable quality motors. The science of Robotics requires a high-end technology to be implemented by researchers or Robotics scientists.

Despite all these, if a teacher (not a Robotics Scientist) can do something in the field and able to develop a prototype that is comparable with the Robots developed by big facilitated and resourceful companies with the help of their best engineers on a huge budget, then the person deserves the appreciation.

A computer science teacher in Kendriya Vidyalaya, IIT Bombay, Dinesh Kunwar Patel has developed the world’s first social and educational humanoid Robot ‘Shalu’ that can speak 47 languages, including 9 Indian and 38 foreign languages. The homemade Robot ‘Shalu’ is made of waste materials, including cardboard, wood, and aluminium.

Scientists may have just tracked down the source of some mysterious infrared glows detected emanating from stars and clouds of interstellar dust and gas.

These Unidentified Infrared Emission (UIE) bands have baffled scientists for decades; according to a theoretical new work, at least some of these bands can be produced by highly ionized buckminsterfullerene, more commonly known as buckyballs.

“I am extremely honored to have played a part in the astonishingly complex quantum chemistry investigations undertaken by Dr Sadjadi that have led to these very exciting results,” said astrophysicist Quentin Parker of Hong Kong University’s Laboratory for Space Research.

AI Dungeon project first became available in December 2019 and attracted attention due to its advanced artificial intelligence — it generated coherent text adventures, where you could perform any action by typing it in the input window. Now AI Dungeon has appeared on Steam.

The gameplay looks like 1970s text quests: you’re told what’s going on, and you write what you’re going to do. But while the 1970s quests only accepted tightly constrained answers, AI Dungeon tries to adjust by all means what you type in. You only have to specify the type of input: action, word, or event.

AI Dungeon also allows you to generate a world, fill it with details of your choice, or dive into the worlds of other players. In addition, you can control the progress of an incident: force II to create a paragraph again or even rewrite it completely by hand. Occurrences allow you to go through with your friends.

Scientists have identified two proteins that can partially stimulate growth in amputated toes in mice, a discovery that puts us one step closer to one day being able to replace amputated limbs in humans.

While bone growth has been achieved before, the new research demonstrates signs of joint growth as well — this shows a level of complexity we haven’t seen before. Both joints and bones are crucial if one is trying to bring back lost limbs.

Over the past few years, astronomers have become aware of some shocking new properties of black holes.

As it turned out, they not only mercilessly consume and destroy everything that falls into them.

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has peered into the chaos of the Cartwheel Galaxy, revealing new details about star formation and the galaxy’s central black hole. Webb’s powerful infrared gaze produced this detailed image of the Cartwheel and two smaller companion galaxies against a backdrop of many other galaxies.
