Physiotherapy could be done at home using Virtual Reality
Virtual reality could help physiotherapy patients complete their exercises at home successfully thanks to researchers at WMG, University of ÌÇÐÄTV, who managed to combine VR technology with 3D motion capture.
Explained: Why water droplets ‘bounce off the walls’
University of ÌÇÐÄTV researchers can now explain why some water droplets bounce like a beach ball off surfaces, without ever actually touching them. Now the design and engineering of future droplet technologies can be made more precise and efficient.
Mathematician identifies new tricks for the old arch in our foot
Walking and running subjects our feet to forces in excess of body weight. The longitudinal arch of the feet was thought to be the reason the feet do not deform under such load. However, researchers from the University of ÌÇÐÄTV, Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University in Japan and Yale University have illustrated that the transverse arch may be more important for this stiffness.
Autonomous pods SWARM together like bees in world first demonstration
Autonomous pods born in Coventry are now able to swarm together in a world first, thanks to research by WMG at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV in partnership with Aurrigo and Milton Keynes council.
Infectious diseases to be detected and prevented thanks to £4m grant
Infectious diseases could be detected, prevented and controlled thanks to a new £4m grant from the NIHR to the University of ÌÇÐÄTV. Researchers will work with partners to develop the use of cutting edge genomics to protect public health.
Students wanted for Data Science for Social Good
Applications are now open for the second Data Science for Social Good Summer Fellowship being held at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV.
The Data Science for Social Good (DSSG) initiative was started at the University of Chicago in 2013 and sees students, PhDs, graduates and data science enthusiasts come together to learn new skills and work on projects submitted by charities, public organisations and social enterprises.
