Researchers in the USA are on course to flight test the first AI-fighter pilot technology during 2023 after running the first successful virtual simulations using algorithms.

The US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA’s) Air Combat Evolution (ACE) programme tested team dogfighting between artificial intelligence-controlled fighters in a software simulation in February.

About a decade ago, Troy Van Beek used to lug around a solar panel to explain to potential customers that the technology, which still was relatively new at the time, can't 'steal sunlight.' Now 11 years after the company's founding, Ideal Energy is trying to sell another novel piece of renewable energy technology - green hydrogen.

A pair of Iowans, including an Iowa State University agronomy professor, helped to shape the future of NASA by evaluating the agency’s satellite missions and recommending which satellites should stay in orbit.

IntelliSee, a new artificial intelligence (AI) software platform that uses existing surveillance cameras and machine-learning algorithms to help organizations improve their risk profiles, has announced its beta release on September 1, 2020.

University of Iowa Electrical and Computer Engineering and Neurology researchers developed an algorithm to detect Parkinson’s Disease in patients using electroencephalography data.

Professor Christoph Beckermann will be working alongside a team at NASA to observe metal alloy grains as they are melted in a mirco-gravity furnace.

After 15 years of work, digital avatars are finally maturing to a place where researchers can “design a human” to test protective equipment for military personnel, University of Iowa researchers said Wednesday.

The Army has been working to update its soldier protection system for women and men who are smaller in size. As the military closes on the five-year point since women have been able to serve in combat positions, Sen. Joni Ernst, an Iowa Republican and retired National Guard officer, said the effort is long overdue.

As the number of COVID-19 cases has surged in the United States and elsewhere, laboratories have struggled to keep up with testing demands. There have been shortages of reagents needed to conduct the tests. Also, many tests—or SARS-CoV-2 assays—are difficult to perform in large numbers. Both problems can delay patients’ test results.
