This image shows a sample of the data collected by the SeaBed autonomous underwater vehicle as it swam over the Chios shipwreck in July 2005. The 3-D color mesh represents a topographic map of the sea floor, created using data collected by multibeam sonar. The brown strip shows the area captured in digital images, which were used to create the photomosaic of the wreck. <a onclick="MM_openBrWindow(...

Here, a soliton (blob with red and blue stripes) moves along a conducting polymer chain (aqua and yellow for hydrogen and carbon). The soliton blob causes a localized bend in the chain. The traditional way to make polymer actuate is to dope the material with an ion such as sodium, represented by the red dot.

The fifth ball is still halfway up the Archimedes screw when this picture was taken. "We knew it took a little over 20 seconds to lift a ball up, so we programmed the robot to remember the last time it picked up a ball and not leave the goal until 30 seconds after this time, if it docked early," said team member Andrew Spann. "The robot docked with about a minute of time remaining, then waited unt...
