Researchers at Northwestern University and Israel’s Tel Aviv University have overcome a major barrier to achieving a low-cost solution for advanced robotic touch. The authors argue that the problem that has been lurking in the […]

Digital twins are a rapidly advancing area in engineering, going beyond static models to continuously receive data from the physical world and make predictions that go on to affect that reality. They have applications in […]

Delivery robots made by companies such as Starship Technologies and Kiwibot autonomously make their way along city streets and through neighborhoods.This post was originally published on this site

Recent advances in robotics and machine learning have enabled the automation of many real-world tasks, including various manufacturing and industrial processes. Among other applications, robotic and artificial intelligence (AI) systems have been successfully used to […]

Many robotic applications rely on robotic arms or hands to handle different types of objects. Estimating the pose of such hand-held objects is an important yet challenging task in robotics, computer vision and even in […]

Trees, vegetation, rocks, unpredictable terrain and the lack of clearly defined roads—or roads at all—won’t stop an autonomous, off-road vehicle developed by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University’s Robotics Institute.This post was originally published on this […]

Fish are masters of coordinated motion. Schools of fish have no leader, yet individuals manage to stay in formation, avoid collisions, and respond with liquid flexibility to changes in their environment. Reproducing this combination of […]

For delivery robots, not all sidewalks are created equal—some are uneven or clogged with people and bus shelters—so researchers at Cornell Tech developed a “robotability score” and rated every street in New York City on […]

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, have already proved to be valuable tools for a wide range of applications, ranging from film and entertainment production to defense and security, agriculture, logistics, construction and […]

Tracking thousands of products in massive warehouses presents a logistical nightmare for many businesses. To address this, Kennesaw State University assistant professor Jian Zhang has introduced an autonomous robot that can log inventory.This post was […]
