Jessie Atkin posted a blog up on Digital Landing! Read about the latest science convention, and interesting new ideas to help the needs of soldiers.
The 26th Army Science Convention took place this past month showcasing research and projects meant to make soldiers both more effective as well as safer.
Some of the most interesting projects included Extracellular Matrix or “magic dust” that could help the body regenerate digits or limbs. Rebuilding missing or damaged bone was also a focus at the conference.
Robots were also displayed in great numbers at the convention. The BEAR robot, for example, could assist in removing injured soldiers from battle zones.
It’s great to own a faster laptop or being able to prevent the flu, but beyond civilian applications science makes more sense than anything when applied to army initiatives and needs.
