4 Awesome Discoveries You Probably Didn’t Hear About This Week – Episode 12

This week's discoveries include robots inspired by ants' tunneling efficiency, a study on how head-neck angles affect concussion risk, a Wi-Fi-based security screening system, and the positive impact of forests on nutrition in developing countries. Robots mimicking ants could aid in disaster recovery and space missions. The concussion study suggests helmet design improvements, while the Wi-Fi system offers a non-invasive security solution. Protecting forests can enhance children's nutrition, challenging the notion that more farmland is needed.
