Sonair is pushing towards a new sensor built on 3D ultrasonic technology, giving autonomous robotics the power to see and make the right decisions. Ralph W. Bernstein is the senior business developer ...

Open source language models are crucial to AI innovation. Can open robotics models do the same for physical machines?

You know what’s cooler than printing robot parts on a 3D printer? Printing the whole freaking robot. Scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence ...

Soft skin coverings and touch sensors have emerged as a promising feature for robots that are both safer and more intuitive for human interaction, but they are expensive and difficult to make. A ...

MIT CSAIL researchers have developed a new way to 3D-print robots which make the devices less prone to damage -- by giving them soft skins. These days, robots are used in many critical areas -- ...

Researchers at Northeastern University have developed a new algorithm that significantly improves the efficiency of mobile robot navigation. Designed to reduce the heavy memory demands of autonomous ...

Robots still struggle with materials that the human eye can easily detect, such as glass, shiny metal, or jet-black surfaces. These materials don’t reflect light in predictable ways, making them hard ...

Although the world of 3D printing is hurtling through milestones at the moment, to a large extent the technology still remains in its infancy. If you thought it was all Etsy jewellery and plastic toys ...

A new 3D sensor will enable robots to observe their environment in a more natural and human-like manner. The TACO project will make it possible to apply current robots in more sophisticated markets so ...

Internals of 3D printed “print and fold” robot. [Image source: MIT CSAIL] Robot design traditionally separates the body geometry from the mechanics of the gait, but they both have a profound effect ...
