There are many of us who may have come across the term that there is no better alternative to the preconstruction process. However, to understand this term better, we need to have a better understanding as to what preconstruction process is all about. That is what we will try and do over the next few lines. There is no denying the fact that not many people have the right understanding and meaning of the preconstruction phase, and that is what we will be looking at over the next few lines. Whethe...

A deep-learning powered single-strained electronic skin sensor can capture human motion from a distance. The single strain sensor placed on the wrist decodes complex five-finger motions in real time with a virtual 3D hand that mirrors the original motions. The deep neural network boosted by rapid situation learning (RSL) ensures stable operation regardless of its position on the surface of the skin. Conventional approaches require many sensor networks that cover the entire curvili...

In our current state, artificial intelligence and generative design are some of the most exciting advances in engineering technology. However, should we be fearing that our jobs as engineers and designers can quickly be stolen? Having jobs stolen by robots is not a new fear, but it hasn’t always been one that extended into more technical career paths. Seeing how a robot could steal a manufacturing worker's job may be easy, but come on, they could never do what I do. Now, it’s sta...
