This could help to systematically remove plastic waste from the oceans using ships. Eye-tracking system facilitates pilot training Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a system to facilitate pilot training and thus make flying safer. The software uses eye-tracking to reveal perception gaps. Twelve fans filter the air near Reykjavik To slow down climate change, a new type of plant in Iceland filters CO2 from the air. This is then mixed with water and injected into basalt. There it petrifies. Swiss researchers decode AI thought processes Researchers have developed a new method for decoding the thinking of artificial intelligences. This is particularly important for situations in which self-learning computer programmes make decisions with implications for human lives. Does this AI think like a human? Researchers at MIT have developed a method that helps users understand how a machine learning model thinks and compare it to how a human thinks. Drones and AI provide information about the melting ice How fast is the ice melting in Antarctica? Autonomous drones and AI could help reduce the uncertainty of sea-level rise. Microplastics reach the brain Tiny micro- and nanoplastic particles (MNP) can not only enter the body through food, as is well known, but can even reach the brain. Materials as hard as snail teeth Researchers want to harness the unusual wear resistance of limpet teeth for new types of materials.
