New York City's 2019 ride-hailing surcharge cut overall taxi and ride-share trips by 11 percent in Manhattan but failed to reduce traffic congestion, a key goal of the policy, according to a new NYU Tandon School of Engineering study published in Transportation Research Part A.“While this surcharge differs from the MTA's proposed congestion pricing plan, the study's findings can contribute to the current discourse,” said Daniel Vignon, who led the research.
NYU Tandon School of Engineering's Urban Future Lab named the winners of its 2024 Future Resilience and Future Solutions prizes, at its 8th annual Urban Future Summit on October 24, 2024 at the Brooklyn Navy Yard in New York City. Through the generous support of The New York Community Trust, MUFG Bank, Mitsubishi Corporation (Americas), the Urban Future Lab continues to catalyze groundbreaking solutions for the climate crisis and this year, they’ve expanded their focus to include adaptation as a critical piece of the puzzle.
An international research team led by NYU Tandon School of Engineering and KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) has pioneered a new technique to identify and characterize atomic-scale defects in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), a two-dimensional (2D) material often dubbed "white graphene" for its remarkable properties.
NYU Tandon School of Engineering and KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) College of Business will introduce the MOT NYU-KAIST dual degree master's program in technology management, offering students a global perspective on tech leadership and the opportunity to study in both Brooklyn, New York and Daejeon, South Korea.
Researchers at NYU Tandon School of Engineering have developed HuBar, a visual analytics tool that summarizes and compares task performance sessions in augmented reality (AR) by analyzing performer behavior and cognitive workload.
As pedestrian fatalities in the United States reach a 40-year high, a novel approach to measuring crosswalk lengths across entire cities could provide urban planners with crucial data to improve safety interventions. NYU Tandon School of Engineering researchers Marcel Moran and Debra F. Laefer published the first comprehensive, city-wide analysis of crosswalk distances.
The rise of AI has amplified the need for responsible stewardship of new technologies, ushering in challenges that require engineers' expertise to solve.NYU Tandon School of Engineering researchers are doing just that, with the support of Google’s Cyber NYC Institutional Research Program (IRP). In June 2023, Google allocated a total of $12 million through Cyber NYC IRP, funding cybersecurity training, education, and cutting-edge research at NYU, City University of New York, Columbia University, and Cornell Tech.
A new study from NYU Tandon School of Engineering suggests that when it comes to visualizations of mass shooting data, political ideology plays a more significant role in shaping emotional responses than racial identity. The research challenges assumptions about how people interpret data related to gun violence.
NYU Tandon School of Engineering is spearheading a novel initiative aimed at expanding access to semiconductor design education, supporting key objectives of the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act and bolstering NYU's growing prominence in chip design.
NYU Tandon School of Engineering’s Urban Future Lab has selected nine startup companies from 317 applications to compete for its two flagship awards at this year’s Urban Future Summit in October. The finalists will pitch their businesses to a panel of judges, who will award one winner each in the Future Resilience Prize and the Future Solutions Prize tracks.
NYU Tandon School of Engineering and Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IIT Kanpur) have unveiled their inaugural roster of collaborative research projects, the first such initiatives under the partnership that NYU and IIT Kanpur established last year. The projects aim to advance fields including cybersecurity, biotech, AI, robotics, and wireless communications.
A dataset introduced by NYU Tandon and autonomous vehicle company May Mobility provides researchers with a wealth of previously-unavailable real-world driving data captured from multiple autonomous vehicles (AVs) over repeated trips, promising to accelerate development of AV technology.
NYU Tandon's Center for K12 STEM Education has educated thousands of NYC public school students from underrepresented groups. The summer program offers courses in cybersecurity, urban engineering, sustainability, and noise pollution, bridging gaps in STEM education and inspiring future innovators.
An NYU Tandon School of Engineering project is one of the first 35 initiatives selected for the National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource (NAIRR) Pilot by the U.S. National Science Foundation and Department of Energy, a result of President Biden's Executive Order on the Safe, Secure and Trustworthy Development and Use of AI.
Synthetically generated population data can reveal the equity impacts of distributing transportation resources and funding across diverse regions, according to new research from NYU's Tandon School of Engineering that uses New York State as a case study.
Popular web browser extensions designed to protect user privacy and block online ads are falling short, according to NYU Tandon School of Engineering researchers, who are proposing new measurement methodologies to better uncover and quantify these shortcomings.
The NYC Media Lab (NYCML) at NYU Tandon School of Engineering and Bertelsmann launched their 4th challenge this month, this time aimed at mentoring teams with projects that use AI to responsibly advance their fields.
For survivors of strokes, which afflict nearly 800,000 Americans each year, regaining fine motor skills like writing and using utensils is critical for recovering independence and quality of life. But getting intensive, frequent rehabilitation therapy can be challenging and expensive.
The deep-sea Venus flower basket sponge can filter feed using only the faint ambient currents of the ocean depths, no pumping required, new research reveals. This discovery of natural ‘“zero energy” flow could help engineers design more efficient chemical reactors, air purification systems, heat exchangers, hydraulic systems, and aerodynamic surfaces.
