In a first, researchers have observed how lithium ions flow through a battery interface, which could help engineers optimize the material’s design.

A new AI-based approach for controlling autonomous robots satisfies the often-conflicting goals of safety and stability.

MIT researchers developed a trajectory-planning system for autonomous vehicles that enables them to travel from a starting point to a target location even when there are many different uncertainties in the environment.

A new machine-learning system may someday help driverless cars predict the next moves of nearby drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians in real-time.

Self-driving Roboats, developed at MIT, set sea in Amsterdam canals. If you don’t get seasick, an autonomous boat might be the right mode of transportation for you. 

Everyone knows the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. However, when you’re walking along city streets, a straight line may not be possible. How do you decide which way to go?

To get ahead of the uncertainty inherent to crashes, scientists from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and the Qatar Center for Artificial Intelligence (QCAI) developed a deep learning model that predicts very high-resolution crash risk maps.

MIT EECS professor and CSAIL principal investigator Hari Balakrishnan has received the annual SIGCOMM Lifetime Achievement Award, for his contributions to mobile and wireless systems, resilient networks, and congestion control.
