Led by Professor Daniel Ahmed, researchers transformed ordinary fabrics into smart sensors that detect touch, pressure, and ...

Imagine wearing a T-shirt that measures your breathing or gloves that translate your hand movements into commands for your ...

The area of sound is fascinating researchers and after a recent study of bendable sound waves that could result in localised reception, they have now delved into how sound can be used in weight loss.

This new metamaterial responds to acoustic waves, letting researchers rotate and move objects with precision underwater.

Researchers at ETH Zurich develop smart textiles that use acoustic waves instead of electronics to measure touch, pressure and movement precisely. SonoTextiles work with glass microfibres that conduct ...

Save guides, add subjects and pick up where you left off with your BBC account. A sound wave is a vibration that travels through a solid, liquid or gas such as the air or water. A loud sound has a ...

On Earth, sound travels through the air as energy waves. These waves move by vibrating particles in the air, which then pass the vibrations to nearby particles, allowing the sound to travel further.

Coral reefs are vital to marine biodiversity, but their livelihood is under threat due to climate instability and the impacts ...

A newly developed metamaterial enables sound waves to manipulate objects underwater without any need for physical contact.

Sound doesn’t just help us hear music or communicate underwater—it can also be used to move objects without physically ...

A University of Texas at Austin scientist has demonstrated a technique for using sound waves to detect unexploded munitions (UXOs) on the seafloor. This novel application of sound could offer an ...
