Abstract: Monocular three-dimensional (3D) scene understanding tasks, e.g., object size angle and 3D position, estimation are challenging to perform. More successful current methods usually require ...

Recent research suggests that humans have a surprising ability—we can sometimes feel a physical object before making contact with it. In a study published this past October in the journal IEEE ...

Astronomers have detected a massive object moving in a synchronized path behind Earth. Early measurements suggest it has been trailing the planet longer than previously assumed. Its trajectory does ...

We’re introducing SAM 3 and SAM 3D, the newest additions to our Segment Anything Collection, which advance AI understanding of the visual world. SAM 3 enables detection and tracking of objects in ...

This is the first report of remote touch in humans. It changes our understanding of human perceptual world. May have robotics and assistive technology applications; help with exploration, search and ...

Abstract: Detection and imaging play a vital role in modern radar technology and have seen significant interest across various fields, including autonomous vehicles, defense, environmental monitoring, ...

Dark matter is believed to make up more than 80 percent of all matter in the universe, but what it actually is remains a mystery. Now, astronomers have found something that gives us a major clue. This ...

Astronomers have detected one of the darkest objects ever seen at a record cosmic distance—only with the assistance of gravity. The discovery is an important step toward the observation of dark matter ...

A team of engineers at North Carolina State University has designed a polymer “Chinese lantern” that can rapidly snap into multiple stable 3D shapes—including a lantern, a spinning top, and more—by ...
