Goodbye expensive screen repairs — Researchers build 3D printer that can make OLED displays

Researchers from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities have developed a customised 3D printer capable of fully printing a flexible OLED display. Their study was recently published in Science Advances, a peer-reviewed scientific journal from the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

The team claims their findings could result in low-cost OLED displays in the future that could be widely produced using 3D printers by anyone at home instead of by technicians in microfabrication facilities.

“The nice part about our research is that the manufacturing is all built-in, so we’re not talking 20 years out with some ‘pie in the sky’ vision,” explained Michel Alpine, senior author of the study.

Une solution naturelle pour lutter contre les mouches tueuses de l'olivier.

"Bactrocera oleae", ces insectes responsables de l’anéantissement des récoltes d’olives... Deux cousines aixoises, Marion Canale (Ingénieure en biotechnologie) et Solena Canale-Parola (master communication à l’ISEG), les cofondatrices de Cearitis, ont trouvé la réponse : une solution naturelle pour piéger ces mouches tueuses et les repousser loin des cultures :

On utilise tout simplement des odeurs répulsives. En les pulvérisant sur les cultures, on obtient une barrière anti-ravageurs, qui agit comme un leurre auprès des femelles pondeuses. En plus, on a mis au point un système “attractif” qui, lui, s’installe à l’extérieur des parcelles, pour attirer les insectes déviés.

Machine Learning Shushes Stressed Dogs - This DIY Project May Succeed Where Other Remedies Have Failed

Clairette (the dog) has had a particularly difficult time adapting to her friends leaving every day, but thankfully her human (Nathaniel Felleke) was able to come up with a clever solution. He trained a TinyML neural net to detect when she barked and used and Arduino to play a sound byte to sooth her. The sound bytes in question are recordings of Nathaniel’s mom either praising or scolding the dog, and as you can see from the video below, they seem to work quite well.

While machine learning may sound like a bit of an extreme solution to curb your dog’s barking, it’s certainly innovative, and even appears to have been successful.
