Luke Farritor works to decipher more of the scroll texts from his computers in his Kauffman Residence Hall room. He has set up a workstation on a table inside the door to the suite with his computer stored in a closet. Farritor, a senior in the Jeffrey S. Raikes School of Computer Science and Engineering, recently won a global contest to read the first text inside a carbonized scroll from the ancient Roman city of Herculaneum. That text had been unreadable since the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79. Farritor developed a machine-learning algorithm that detected the Greek word πορϕυρας (purple) on the charred papyrus scroll, which is too delicate to unroll using MRI scans. November 27, 2023.

BSE Professors Yufeng Ge (left) and Santosh Pitla inspect the Flexible Robot, or Flex-Ro, which is outfitted with sensors that collect data and help the vehicle avoid obstacles. A planter for Mars would be much smaller so it can be transported easier and also because the “fields” would probably be in enclosed spaces.
