Rolf Mueller, a professor of mechanical engineering at Virginia Tech created technology that determines the location of a sound’s origin, inspired by bats. A picture of the synthetic bat ear designed by Professor Mueller and his team is attached.
News, Gut microbes in plant-eating ants help build tougher armor
Gut bacteria in a specious of herbivorous ant play a major role in processing nutrients that allow the ants to build tough exoskeletons, an international team of researchers has found. Researchers broke down which components in the bacteria contributed so their host could build a thicker armor. These findings could possibly […]
