In the 1980s when micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) were first created, computer engineers were excited by the idea that these new devices that combine electrical and mechanical components at the microscale could be used to build […]

Flashy humanoid robots that have awed attendees at Web Summit in Lisbon this week are still far from revolutionizing physical labor in factories and warehouses, Amazon’s chief roboticist told AFP.This post was originally published on […]

Robots aren’t always the most delicate of machines when handling fragile objects. They don’t have the lightness of touch of humans. But that could be about to change thanks to a new development in smart […]

A research team from the Cognitive Neurotechnology Unit and the Visual Perception and Cognition Laboratory, Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Toyohashi University of Technology, investigated human behavior and comfort when handing over a […]

Robots powered by popular artificial intelligence models are currently unsafe for general purpose real-world use, according to new research from King’s College London and Carnegie Mellon University.This post was originally published on this site

A study by researchers at Queen Mary University of London and University College London has found that humans have a form of remote touch, or the ability to sense objects without direct contact, a sense […]

A research team led by Dr. Lin Cao from the University of Sheffield’s School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering has reimagined one of robotics’ long-standing flaws as a breakthrough feature—unveiling a new way for soft […]

A robot searching for workers trapped in a partially collapsed mine shaft must rapidly generate a map of the scene and identify its location within that scene as it navigates the treacherous terrain.This post was […]

Researchers at the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, have developed advanced robotic technologies to support the assembly and maintenance of future fusion reactors.This post was originally published on this […]

A team led by the University of Oxford has developed a new class of soft robots that operate without electronics, motors, or computers—using only air pressure. The study, published in Advanced Materials, shows that these […]
