How a new extraction process could unlock the world’s lithium - MIT Technology Review

Vision has become central to modern robotics, but cameras alone cannot tell a robot everything it needs to know about physical contact. When handling flexible objects, inserting components, or manipulating delicate items, robots need information about forces, slippage, and contact that visual systems may miss. Daimon Robotics wants to provide the infrastructure to help robots develop that capability.

An AI-operated drone learned to fly from scratch and navigated a race course at speeds over 60 mph, using a single camera.

The novel androgen receptor degrader bavdegalutamide demonstrated a manageable safety profile and antitumor activity in patients with metastatic castration–resistant prostate cancer previously treated with androgen receptor pathway inhibitors, particularly those with tumors harboring specific androgen receptor mutations, according to findings from a phase I/II study reported by Gao et al in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. The open-label, phase I/II study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT03888612) enrolled 239 patients at 20 U. S. sites. Eligible patients had metastatic castration–resistant prostate cancer and had previously received at least one androgen receptor pathway inhibitor. The investigators evaluated bavdegalutamide (ARV-110), a proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC) designed to promote androgen receptor degradation through recruitment of an E3 ubiquitin ligase.

SAN FRANCISCO –Spanish startup UARX Space is remedying anomalies identified during the maiden flight of OSSIE-D, an orbital transfer vehicle (OTV) launched Oct. 1 aboard SpaceX’s Transporter-18 mission. At least 10 PocketQubes have been deployed. “Immediately after launch, we experienced a communications blackout with our spacecraft,” Andrés Villa Granata, UARX co-founder and chief technology officer, told SpaceNews by email.

1Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Midnight Riviera Blue – £770Cortesía de SeikoInspired by the world of motorsport, this European-exclusive Speedtimer is a rather handsome addition to Seiko’s chronograph collection. Its dark blue dial features three contrasting grey subdials, while the 39mm stainless-stell case means things stay relatively compact. It’s solar-powered, meaning there’s no need for regular battery changes, and comes with both a steel bracelet and a tan leather racing strap. Limited to 4,000 pieces, it’s one for fans of classic racing watches. SHOP2Seiko Power Design Project Panda - £510 Courtesy of Seiko. Watch enthusiasts have been calling chronographs with white dials and black subdials 'pandas' for decades. Seiko has decided to take the nickname rather literally. Its new Power Design Project watches feature panda-like faces, complete with pushers that resemble little ears. Available in white and pink, they're playful, very literal, and all the better for it.
