MIT Sloan researchers have developed a scalable tactile glove (STAG) with approximately 550 sensors that allows AI systems to receive tactile feedback. STAG achieved up to 76% accuracy in identifying common objects like a mug or tennis ball without visual information and could correctly guess their weight within 60 grams. The researchers believe integrating STAG with computer vision could enable robots to replicate human interactions like doing chores or washing dishes, and it may also help with customizing prosthetics.

The evolution of artificial intelligence in the workplace
Since the first appearance of the words “artificial intelligence” more than 60 years ago, our imaginations have been sparked. Imagine creating computers that simulate human intelligence.
AI has the potential to profoundly influence our lives, perhaps to the point when our world can be better understood and even predicted. In workplaces we can develop systems through which AI may evolve. And Konica Minolta is progressing with the concept of intelligent hubs which will provide businesses with insight, support and greater collaboration.
By combining our core technologies with transformative solutions in the digital workplace, we’re evolving to become a problem-solving digital company creating new value for people and society.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE & ROBOTICS – SYNTHETIC BRAIN IN ACTION
Rapid technological growth has made Artificial Intelligence (AI) and application of robots common among
human lives. The advancements undertaken to make designs with human similarities or adaptations to the
society are elaborated in detail. The increasing manufacturing and use of robots for industrial purposes
have been related to their operating mechanisms. The experiments and laboratory testing of these devices
is analysed in form tables to show the statistical side of the technology. This report explains the
technological aspects and laboratory experiments that have been advanced to increase knowledge on these
digital technologies. This study aims to present an overview of two developing technologies: artificial
intelligence (AI) and robots and their potential applications. The product variety is a primary
characteristic of each of these specialties. In addition, they may be described as disruptive, facilitating,
and transdisciplinary.

Maker Mindset Facilitates Innovation at MIT
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has had a long history of innovation. Much too often, in fact, students would convert their dorms and apartments into laboratories of innovation and invention called "makerspaces". These workspaces for innovation are central to the institution’s legacy of research and development. Makerspaces are examples of MIT’s motto, “mens et manus” (mind and hand) at work. MIT is synonymous with innovation, and this rapidly growing ecosystem is another evolution of the university’s platform for research.."
MIT's makerspaces are often categorized into three types: machine shops, project makerspaces, and community makerspaces. In the machine shop makerspaces, machinists oversee students developing complex systems. Students can seek project makerspaces to help them with class projects. In community makerspaces, students are not limited in the types of research they engage in while learning about safe maker practices.
New Grant Funds Study of Worm to Understand Serotonin and Behavior
An educator, academic, and successful entrepreneur, Jean-Jacques Degroof has extensive experience in teaching about and building new ventures.
A few years ago, Jean-Jacques Degroof launched with MIT's International Science and Technology Initiative (MISTI) an edition of Global Startup Labs at the University of Louvain in Belgium.
MIT has always been at the helm of innovation, producing some of the country’s best and brightest talent, and this year, the school was granted funding for research to study behavior on a nematode. The study’s researchers chose C. elegans because the system from which they emit and receive serotonin is comparable to that of mammals.
Because of the complexities of the nervous system in mammals, researchers could not use mammals, but they instead chose this worm because the nematode's neurons can be precisely mapped out. Scientists can genetically control these cells including the five systems that regulate serotonin.
Being able to regulate all of the neurons in the worm’s nervous system allows them to study the release of serotonin and how this affects behavior. The first two experiments will focus on how the brain uses serotonin to control behavior, and the third experiment planned will focus on how this behavior changes in complex environments.
Architect Converting Shipping Containers to Emergency Hospital Pods
Jean-Jacques Degroof is an accomplished entrepreneur and venture investor with experience teaching at leading European business schools. An alumnus of MIT Sloan School of Management, Jean-Jacques Degroof supports entrepreneurship and innovation at his alma mater.
One of the innovative projects is being undertaken at MIT is by Carlo Ratti, a professor of architecture. Mr. Ratti is developing two-bed intensive care pods out of ordinary 20-foot long shipping containers to increase hospital bed capacity in cities around the world ravaged by the COVID-19 pandemic. The pods can be built for about $100,000, equipped with all relevant medical devices, a fraction of the cost of building an emergency prefabricated hospital.
Mr. Ratti is working with a team of professionals from around the world to fast track the innovative solution. He has already received funding from UniCredit to build the prototype which will be deployed in Milan, Italy where the pandemic is straining health care systems. He will make the designs public so that teams around the world can use them to ramp up their healthcare capabilities. He is also in talks with automotive manufacturers to mass-produce the pods.

The institution, which was originally founded to drive the United State’s industrial revolution, currently instructs over 11,500 students and and has a research budget of $773,901 million in 2019..
Recently, an MIT chemistry team led by associate professor Brad Pentelute began testing a drug candidate that held promise as a treatment for COVID-19. The drug, a peptide or short protein fragment, mimics proteins found on the surface of human cells. Initial research of the drug has shown it can disarm coronaviruses by binding to a viral protein that the virus uses to enter cells.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

MIT Sloan's Innovative Artificial Intelligence-Based Tactile Glove
- 1. MIT Sloan's Innovative Artificial Intelligence-Based Tactile Glove By: Jean-Jacques Degroof
- 2. MIT Sloan's Innovative Artificial Intelligence-Based Tactile Glove Jean-Jacques Degroof's work as an investor and mentor spans organizations across the United States and Europe, since earning his masters degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Sloan School of Management (MIT Sloan) in 1993. Since then, Jean-Jacques Degroof has earned advanced degrees from the institution and supported it in multiple capacities.
- 3. MIT Sloan's Innovative Artificial Intelligence-Based Tactile Glove In the area of robotics, MIT Sloan researchers continue to make an impact. A recent innovation is the scalable tactile glove (STAG), which allows artificial-intelligence (AI) systems to receive tactile feedback through approximately 550 sensors. According to a dataset published in Nature, STAG achieved up to 76 percent accuracy in identifying a variety of common objects without needing visual information. It also correctly guessed their weight within a 60-gram range. These items included a mug, a tennis ball, and scissors, among others.
- 4. MIT Sloan's Innovative Artificial Intelligence-Based Tactile Glove When integrated with traditional image-based datasets and computer vision, the research team believe that the glove may eventually enable robots to replicate how humans interact with the world. This includes performing tasks such as completing chores and washing dishes. Moreover, the researchers suspect that STAG can potentially be implemented in designing prosthetics and allow manufacturers to customize them to suit an individual’s particular needs.
