A new, patent-pending underwater robot developed at Purdue University’s College of Engineering could improve ocean research, underwater infrastructure inspection and search-and-rescue efforts by adapting to mission needs in real time, acting as a drifter, a […]

Propeller-powered underwater vehicles have long helped scientists explore and monitor aquatic environments. But they’re limited by their own mechanics: Spinning blades can snag on vegetation, stir up sediment and startle the wildlife they’re often sent […]

A Chinese humanoid robot set a new 100-meter sprint record of 8.86 seconds in Beijing on Tuesday, beating its robot competitors—and the fastest recorded human time.This post was originally published on this site

Robots sorting parcels and serving fried chicken enthralled visitors at a robotics expo in Beijing on Wednesday, where hundreds of companies set out their pitches for a future labor market transformed by artificial intelligence.This post […]

From searching disaster zones and responding to chemical spills to monitoring fragile ecosystems, future robot swarms may have to act in places where direct human control is difficult or dangerous. To operate autonomously, the robots […]

The rules of tag are simple enough for a playground: catch or be caught. But when the players are autonomous drones, the game becomes a test of machine learning, split-second decision-making and cooperative strategy.This post […]

A new paper from Monash University and Australia’s national science agency, CSIRO, argues that effective human–robot teams depend on alignment: a shared and up-to-date understanding of each teammate’s capabilities and limitations, the task and situation, […]

The human hand is a dexterous and versatile machine. Scientists have conventionally tried to replicate these traits in robots by copying the biological mechanics of the hand, resulting in complex and difficult-to-control structures. An alternative […]

Researchers at the University of Stuttgart and the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research have developed tiny rolls that can be unrolled and rolled up in a controlled manner using a magnet. The model […]

The Multimedia Laboratory (MMLab) at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) has spearheaded the development of “RoboDojo,” a unified benchmarking platform designed to evaluate robotic manipulation across simulated and physical environments. Co-initiated by Professor Ping […]
