OK Go Sandbox is a collection of 25+ videos, a website, lesson plans, social media interactions, participatory projects – such as “Art in Space” and “#ArtTogetherNow” – as well as live events that help kids and families explore science, engineering, art, math, and more through the music videos and education…

The planar robot comprises multiple carriers moving contactless in six dimensions on individual paths, transporting and positioning goods with high speed and accuracy. Based on smart AI control and high-precision sensing, our Permanent Magnetic Drive technology will change industrial production: huge payloads are handled efficiently with low energy and without…

Light-Emitting Silicon: Demonstration of Efficient Light Emission from a new alloy of hexagonal silicon and germanium to obtain photonic chips, which can revolutionize computing. Silicon is a powerful material pervading our everyday lives. Silicon-based microchips are the basis of nearly every electronic device used in our houses, cars, smart gadgets,…

In a time when everything can be faked and where identity theft and fake news are on the rise, trust is a volatile and precious thing. For centuries, trust in markets and between people was granted by governments and law enforcement. In today’s complex globalised markets and societies, decentralised blockchain…

Despite outperforming boys in science subjects up until grade 8, less than 10% of Pakistani engineering graduates are women. We believe societal pressures and stereotypical fear of math and science inhibits inclination to STEM education and consequent STEM careers for many young girls in Pakistan and globally. Games built around…

Peter Baum is a professor of physics at the University of Konstanz, Germany. His current research in Konstanz focuses on the interaction of light and matter at ultimately small dimensions of space and time, using electron pulses under light-cycle control. Atoms and electrons are the two central constituents of all…

Despite over 40 years of research there is currently no commercially viable treatment for bio- and mixed plastic waste at scale. Burning them requires expensive exhaust-gas clean-up (e.g. dioxins) and frequent reactor maintenance (toxic slag build-up). Cat-HTR™ changes this completely: it continuously generates and distils stable end-products, yielding from mixed…

We offer to place wind generators near the railways for accumulation and supplying of non-traction consumers.   Tags: Energy, Engineering, Renewable energies.

Science is a Drag is a Science Engagement initiative by and for the LGBTQ2SIA+ community. Taking an intersectional approach, it challenges the cis, white and heteronormative structures in STEM to create a community where people can share and engage with science in a manner that is authentic and welcoming. Inspired…
