Startup Pedia on Instagram: "Bengaluru-based Sarla Aviation has started ground testing its half-scale electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) demonstrator, SYLLA SYL-X1. With a wingspan of 7.5 meters, it is the largest privately developed eVTOL in India. This testing marks an important step toward launching India’s first locally built air taxis. The ground testing will help Sarla check the aircraft’s structure, propulsion system, and safety features. SYLLA SYL-X1 is a sub-scale model, bui

Quantum Emerges | Science & Tech on Instagram: "This sci-fi concept explores a modular body built from organic components that connect more like living tissue than mechanical parts. Instead of rigid frames and motors, the focus is on flexibility, regeneration, and adaptation. The unsettling appearance is intentional. It sits at the boundary where robotics and biology begin to merge. While this project is conceptual, real researchers are already working on bio-hybrid systems, lab-grown tissues, a

World in Motion 🕹️ on Instagram: "This is a real research prototype focused on reproducing human speech using a physical mouth rather than digital audio output. The system relies on soft silicone lips, artificial skin, and mechanical actuators to replicate the movements of a human mouth during speech. Sound is produced through controlled airflow and vibration, closely resembling the mechanics of a real human vocal tract. These robotic mouths are primarily developed in Japanese research laborato
