Unlike current translation devices that focus on one speaker, researchers have just developed a pair of headphones that can determine how many people are speaking, follow them through space, and translate each person's words as a separate stream.

We recently told you about the T-Apex, a mobile tennis-ball-serving robot that tracks and assesses players' returns. Well, the Acemate bot goes a step further, by actually rallying back and forth with players to really hone their skills.

Researchers have developed technology to detect heart attacks in real time with a high degree of accuracy, and packed it into a chip that could fit in a wearable device. The team hopes it may someday feature in life-saving medical gadgets.

HiDock says its pocket-sized P1 recorder is the first device on the market to capture audio from your Bluetooth earbuds for high-quality recordings. It also uses AI to transcribe and summarize those recordings, and can be had for as little as $99.

We've seen the Lynx robodog from Deep Robotics perform some incredibly athletic feats since launching last year, such as bounding over extreme terrain and chilling in snow. Now the company has debuted a rugged version for industrial use.

Ultra-deep tech startup Nirvanic put on a fairly humble-looking robotics demo at Jeff Bezos's private MARS 2025 conference – but it may go down as a landmark moment both in AI robotics, and in our understanding of consciousness itself.

Researchers have developed DolphinGemma, the first LLM for understanding dolphin language. It could help us translate what these incredible creatures are saying, potentially much faster than we ever could with manual approaches used over decades.

I first learned to drive when I was around 10 years old and had a driver’s license by the time I was 16. AI is now about 73 years old and still can’t drive. What gives?

A team of California-based researchers has developed an incredible AI-powered system to restore natural speech for paralyzed people in real time and using their own voices.

Swedish sci-fi adventure flick Watch the Skies is using a technique called 'visual dubbing' to alter the cast's lip movements and map them to dubbed English dialogue for international audiences – without reshooting a single scene.

A new AI model can predict the likelihood of premature death from inflammatory bowel disease, with 95% accuracy. This is good news – by looking beyond the gut for early treatment of other chronic illnesses can greatly reduce the early mortality rate.

Volvo has taken to a cutting-edge technique for reconstructing scenes in 3D virtual worlds to help its cars' safety software expect the unexpected. It could help the automaker develop safer ADAS features for future vehicles.
