More than a good eye: Robot uses arms, location and more to discover objects May 6th 2013, 15:40 A robot can struggle to discover objects in its surroundings when it relies on computer vision alone. But by taking advantage of all of the information available to it -- an object's location, size, shape and even whether it can be lifted -- a robot can continually discover and refine its understanding of objects, say researchers.

Cyberbullying rampant among high school students: Nearly one-third of youths also report playing video/computer games for more than 3 hours a day May 5th 2013, 11:37 Step into a class of 30 high school students and look around. Five of them have been victims of electronic bullying in the past year. What's more, 10 of those students spend three or more hours on an average school day playing video games or using a computer for something other than school work, according to a new study.

Computer simulations reveal the energy landscape of ion channels May 3rd 2013, 14:51 Ion channels are important drug targets. A young team of researchers investigated the opening and closing mechanisms of these channels. The time consuming calculations were performed using the high performance computer cluster, which is currently the fastest computer in Austria. Robots take part in a space simulation May 3rd 2013, 13:41 The two robots Flobi and Nao worked full time for three weeks in an isolation study in Cologne. Scientists were studying how these intelligent assistance systems can help astronauts to keep fit – both physically and mentally. However, it was not just the people who were on trial, but the robots as well. The scientists were testing both their suitability and their durability. The experiment ended on Saturday. Cyberthreats must require governments and businesses to be 'cyberrisk intelligent' May 2nd 2013, 18:26 In an age where cybersecurity is of foremost interest for governments and businesses, public and private organizations must deploy risk-intelligence governance to secure their digital communications and resources from eavesdropping, theft or attack, according to a new article. How to get more followers on Twitter May 2nd 2013, 15:55 What do all Twitter users want? Followers – and lots of them. Looking at a half-million tweets over 15 months, a first-of-its-kind study has revealed a set of reliable predictors for building a Twitter following. Researchers look to mathematics, nature, to understand the immune system and its role in cancer May 1st 2013, 13:18 Can patterns in tree branches or the meandering bends in a river provide clues that could lead to better cancer therapies? According to a new study, these self-similar, repeating patterns in nature known as fractals help scientists better understand how the immune system is organized and may one day be used to help improve stem cell transplant outcomes in leukemia patients by predicting the probability of transplant complications. Talking tissue boxes and other smart objects may be welcomed by most people May 1st 2013, 13:18 Just as people have embraced computers and smart phones, they may also give their blessing to talking tissue boxes and other smart objects, according to researchers. Why people quit and come back to Facebook Apr 30th 2013, 14:59 With more than a billion active accounts worldwide, it can be easy to forget that some people don't use Facebook. A new study suggests that "non-use" of the social networking site is fairly common – a quarter of Facebook users take breaks from the site by deactivating their account, and one in 10 completely quit.
