Silicon is a crucial nutrient that can join with the element oxygen to form a substance commonly called silica. Silica, commonly known as glass, is found in rocks in the Earth’s crust and dissolves into the oceans, where organisms like algae and sponges use it to build their glassy skeletons. This process, called biosilicification, is extremely important in the silica cycle. Over time, organisms h
The usage of robots in industry is transforming. Traditionally, robots have been deployed to automate monotonous tasks through manual programming, excelling in speed and precision yet lacking flexibility. Now, as part of Industry 4.0, the paradigm is shifting towards collaborative robotics, where robots are expected to interact dynamically with their environment and handle non-repetitive tasks. Th
