The researchers tried coupling tubes in different configurations ... The team uses paper prototypes to demonstrate how a thin, flexible sheet can be folded into functional structures, but their ...

The idea of light, thin speakers is almost 100 years old, but now thanks to nanotechnology scientists think it might finally be possible. It’s time for one of those imagined futures which always ...

That is the challenge we solved in this work,” says Deblina Sarkar, an assistant professor in the Media Lab and the senior author of a paper ... thin materials can be patterned on top of the ...

Now, engineers at MIT have developed mountable paper-thin speakers that can produce sound from any surface. The creators say that the speakers should be easy to produce at a large scale.

Researchers have developed a new 'zippered tube' configuration that ... The team uses paper prototypes to demonstrate how a thin, flexible sheet can be folded into functional structures, but ...
