AIDA is a project created by MIT’s Personal Robots Group, the SENSEable city lab and Volkswagen Group of America’s Electronics Research Lab. The cute robot is lovingly called AIDA, but its real name is a long Affective Intelligent Driving Agent...

The little helicopter from MIT’s Robust Robotics Group at the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) showed off its skill at navigating and maneuvering. The little machine managed to fly safely through a house,..

Students at MIT are working on a project that will take electric cars into the same league as their gasoline powered counterparts. The intention is to create an electric car that can rival performance of gasoline powered cars. The figures they are...

MIT SENSEable City Lab has created a futuristic bus stop, which goes beyond the limits of bus stops as we know them today. Called EyeStop these solar powered stops are partially covered with touch sensitive e-INK and screens, and are wired to the...

MIT’s solar car is finally game for the World Solar Challenge. To cover the 2000 mile track in seven days, the car has been made rugged and efficient. Its aerodynamic design leads to an ultra-low drag coefficient of 0.11, a number lower than that...

A group of MIT undergraduate students has created energy-harvesting shock absorbers. The group set out to find where energy was wasted in a vehicle, and decided to work on the suspension since regenerative braking is already in use. They found that a.

Researchers at MIT are working on a new fuel-efficient engine that may help to bring down global fuel consumption. Researchers have demonstrated how ordinary spark ignition engine can move to a spark-free operating mode that is fuel efficient and just as.

The decreasing fuel reserves and increased utility of automobiles has posed a need for better alternatives. MIT researchers are developing a half-sized gasoline engine, which will work on boifeul and will have a better performance than the present...

MIT's Laboratory for Electromagnetic and Electronic Systems has morphed ultracapacitors by switching in carbon nanotubes enhancing the electrode's surface area and storage capacity. The new technology which is ten times more powerful will replace...
