A table that lifts itself up at the push of a button, a handheld device that protects fragile phone chargers, a drone that detects pollution, a gigantic 2,500 foot water slide and a robot that automatically detects intruders.
Gail Kaiser has spent much of her life here on Lake Mead, with its crystal blue water pouring into canyons and splintering off like blood vessels into coves and bays, forming the vast reservoir that stretches into two states.
Robots build cars, vacuum floors and complete sophisticated, minimally invasive medical procedures. But there’s still one thing they can’t do, a scientific head-scratcher that continues to distinguish machines from human beings: While a robot might outsmart a single human, it cannot defeat two.

Imagination is releasing a free version of its Linux-ready MIPS MicroAptiv CPU to universities called “MIPSfpga,” which will offer fully transparent RTL.
Nevada leads the nation in drone technology, as now there is more proof that the future of robotics is right here at UNLV.
Without a government buy in, and soon, Nevada could miss the drone rush.
When you ask UNLV robotics professor Paul Oh how long his laboratory took to create, he can’t help but laugh.
UNLV professor Paul Oh is pleased as they are finally opening the doors on a newly built lab for its drone and robotics programs featuring their Metal Rebel competition entry and many others.
The new UNLV Drones and Autonomous Systems Lab is in the back of a 99 Cents store building across the street from the Clark County Library on Flamingo.
How a dry lake bed in Ivanpah Valley turned into a mysterious $2.2 billion source of thermal solar energy—and environmental controversy.
As we wait for a clear picture of the impact of Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System on the energy portfolio and environment, one thing is clear: The world of solar power has changed since that project was conceived nearly a decade ago.
