Britain is poised to implement an Australian-style ban on social media for children under 16, potentially as early as this year. This initiative is pa

Roboticists at EPFL have demonstrated that modular robots can become significantly more resistant to failure by sharing power, sensing, and communication resources among individual units. This approach reverses the trend where traditional robotic systems often lose functionality if one element breaks down.
