From the Lab: The future of sound wave engineering - with Sriram Subramanian

In this month's From the Lab episode, we discover the power of sound waves and how they can manipulate small objects with engineer Sriram Subramanian, ahead of his Discourse at the end of March. Sriram explains the science behind acoustic holography and levitation, and how we could see these concepts in practice in industries ranging from gaming to medicine.About 'From the Lab':This is the third of our new 'From the Lab' series, taking the place of our 'From the Theatre' episodes.
