A University of Queensland spin-out, Cortisonic, is commercialising a new class of ultra-low-energy computing technology that uses high-frequency sound waves, known as hyper-sound, rather than conventional electronics to process information.
Finding the minerals needed for the energy transition requires faster and more accurate ways to understand what lies beneath the Earth's surface and extract them sustainably.
Researchers from UQ's School of Mechanical and Mining Engineering pioneered world-first autonomous mining equipment, including a fully autonomous excavator and autonomous bulldozers for production mining, helping improve safety, productivity and efficiency across the global mining industry.
