Indian Dance Mudras May Revolutionise Robotic Hand Control, UMBC Study Shows

Researchers are using classical Indian dance, especially Bharatanatyam mudras, to improve robotic hand dexterity. By analysing 30 structured mudras, scientists found they offer more versatile motion patterns than everyday grasps. These dance-derived synergies could enhance prosthetics, assistive robots, gesture-based rehabilitation and future humanoid systems needing ...

New Telescope Data Deepens the Mystery of How Fast the Universe Is Expanding

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope’s final polarisation maps reinforce the long-standing Hubble tension, confirming a slower early-universe expansion rate similar to Planck’s findings. By ruling out several proposed fixes, the new data intensifies the mystery and suggests current cosmological models may be missing key physics.
