Google and Tel Aviv University (TAU) are continuing their collaboration and launching a new program for the promotion of artificial intelligence (AI) and data science research through a Center for AI and Data Science at TAU (TAD). The center will be headed by Professor Meir Feder of TAU’s School of Electrical Engineering and will receive… Read More
A new technological development from Tel Aviv University (TAU) has made it possible for a robot to smell using a biological sensor. The sensor sends electrical signals as a response to the presence of a nearby odor, which the robot can detect and interpret. In this new study, the researchers successfully connected the biological sensor… Read More
