| Can a brain-computer interface convert your thoughts to text? Posted: 25 Oct 2016 08:40 AM PDT Ever wonder what it would be like if a device could decode your thoughts into actual speech or written words? While this might enhance the capabilities of already existing speech interfaces with devices, it could be a potential game-changer for those with speech pathologies, and even more so for "locked-in" patients who lack any speech or motor function. |
| Parasitic plants may form weapons out of genes stolen from hosts Posted: 24 Oct 2016 02:07 PM PDT Sneaky parasitic weeds may be able to steal genes from the plants they are attacking and then use those genes against the host plant, according to a team of scientists. |
| Zebrafish want to hang out with moving 3-D robotic models of themselves Posted: 24 Oct 2016 10:32 AM PDT Authenticity is an important trait, and zebrafish take it especially seriously. An interdisciplinary team of researchers has discovered that zebrafish engage more with 3D-moving robotic models of themselves than with other stimuli. |
| Ice shelf vibrations cause unusual waves in Antarctic atmosphere Posted: 24 Oct 2016 10:28 AM PDT Low-frequency vibrations of the Ross Ice Shelf are likely causing ripples and undulations in the air above Antarctica, a new study finds. Using mathematical models of the ice shelf, the study's authors show how vibrations in the ice match those seen in the atmosphere, and are likely causing these mysterious atmospheric waves. |
| New species of extremely leggy millipede discovered in a cave in California Posted: 24 Oct 2016 06:56 AM PDT Along with many spiders, pseudoscorpions, and flies discovered and catalogued by the cave explorers, a tiny threadlike millipede was found in the unexplored dark marble caves in Sequoia National Park. |
