China recently completed a 158-kilometer resurfacing of the Beijing–Hong Kong–Macao Expressway, and it looked nothing like traditional roadwork. Instead of crews in hard hats and reflective vests, the site was managed entirely by AI-driven drones, self-driving pavers, and robotic rollers. No manual laborers were present. No one stood in harm’s way.

In an age where power is shrinking to the size of a pixel, China’s National University of Defense Technology (NUDT) has unveiled a breakthrough that feels more like science fiction than statecraft. In June 2025, NUDT revealed a nearly microscopic military drone—designed to mimic the flight, scale, and stealth of a mosquito. This innovation marks a dramatic step forward in the global drone arms race and opens a new chapter in covert surveillance and asymmetric warfare.

In today’s competitive manufacturing landscape, integrating industrial robots has become essential. Yet, the process often remains cumbersome, requiring specialized programming, complex setup, and slow iteration. Holon Robotics, a young med-tech startup based in Hsinchu, Taiwan, is completely changing this story. They’ve built HolonOS, an intelligent platform that unifies robots, sensors, and AI—enabling zero-programming automation through intuitive, app-like deployment and a

In June 2024, Chinese urologist Dr. Zhang Xu made history—performing the world’s first transcontinental remote prostatectomy,...

For the first time ever, researchers at Japan’s Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT) have programmed a drone to trigger real lightning strikes by firing precision electric pulses into storm clouds  . This isn’t just a gadget—it’s a flying lightning rod, completely encased in a Faraday cage that withstands surges up to 150 kA.

In an era defined by rapid technological progress, innovations increasingly blur the boundaries between nature and technology. A groundbreaking example emerges from China, where researchers from Wuhan University have introduced a remarkable robotic fish into the waters of the Yangtze River. While this advanced machine doesn't exactly pit human intelligence against artificial intelligence, it intriguingly sets up a comparison of "Real Fish vs. Robotic Fish".

Japan is pioneering a groundbreaking use of AI powered drones to dramatically accelerate reforestation, enabling forests to be planted up to

In early June 2024, the world witnessed a stunning turn in the war between Ukraine and Russia. But beyond the headlines and satellite imagery, this operation did more than damage military assets—it gave us a clear look into the next chapter of technological warfare.

For nearly a century, robots have played a pivotal role in shaping the way we experience cinema. From their first appearances as mechanical

Toyota Motor Corporation has embarked on one of the most ambitious smart city projects in history—Woven City, a $10 billion purpose-built co

In what may be the first recorded robot kidnapping attempt, a man in San Jose, California, tried to steal an $18,000 robotic server from Pho
