Humanoid robots move by walking on two legs and using robotic arms to manipulate objects. Their motion relies on balance, ...

Nature, the master engineer, is coming to our rescue again. Inspired by scorpions, scientists have created new pressure ...

For robots to be predictable and adaptive, they need a priority-based architecture and a new legal model, argues a researcher ...

The sensor is lightweight, low-cost, and wireless, making it an affordable option for retrofitting existing robot hands and graspers. The human hand can sense pressure, temperature, texture, and pain.

Farmers might be able to get help tending and harvesting crops using a new sensing technology from Carnegie Mellon University ...

Sensor data is like brain food for robots, and as robots become more complex and sophisticated in their ability to take in ...

MIT professor Daniela Rus explains how AI-powered robots are being trained to safely assist in homes and daily life.

Researchers have developed a robotic sensor that incorporates artificial intelligence techniques to read braille at speeds roughly double that of most human readers.

A robot able to “smell” using a biological sensor The researchers say that the biological sensor sensitivity to smell is 10,000 times higher than that of existing electronic devices.

Despite decades of progress, most robots are still programmed for specific, repetitive tasks. They struggle with the unexpected and can't adapt to new situations without painstaking reprogramming. But ...

Braille is a method of physical writing used to allow humans to read by touch — most commonly used as a substitute for printed text by those who may be visually impaired. Both displaying Brai… ...
