#TechItOut | Engineers are increasingly looking to nature for ideas that could improve the capabilities of future robots. In this story, we look at how researchers in Italy have developed a soft robotic arm inspired by the octopus, using sensor-equipped artificial suction cups to detect touch, adapt to different objects and interact more naturally with its surroundings. The report explores how bio-inspired robotics could improve the way robots work in underwater environments, industrial settings and other complex spaces where flexibility and delicate handling are essential

#TechItOut | As climate change and food security concerns grow, researchers and start-ups are exploring new ways to produce nutritious food in challenging environments. In this story, we look at how an Egyptian biotech company is combining artificial intelligence with duckweed cultivation to grow high-protein crops in desert regions using hydroponics and brackish water. The report explores how AI-powered monitoring systems are helping optimise plant growth, reduce waste and improve yields, while testing whether technology can make food production more resilient in regions with limited arable land

#TechItOut with Nikita Singh | Researchers in Australia have developed a biological computer that combines living human brain cells with a silicon chip.
The system has been trained to play the classic video game Doom by converting digital events into electrical signals that neurons can understand and respond to. Scientists say the technology could eventually be used in areas ranging from healthcare and drug discovery to machine learning, offering a new approach to computing inspired by the efficiency and adaptability of the human brain
#TechItOut with Nikita Singh | A hospital in Milan is testing Alter-Ego, a humanoid designed to assist patients and support healthcare workers with routine tasks.
Equipped with AI-powered interaction capabilities, the robot can communicate with patients, share information with medical staff and help reduce everyday workloads. Researchers say the goal is not to replace doctors or nurses, but to explore how robotics and human expertise can work together to improve patient care
