A Shanghai-based company has developed humanoid robots that appear as real as humans. The advanced bionic humanoid robot is ...

A single AI model trained to control numerous robotic bodies can operate unfamiliar hardware and adapt eerily well to serious ...

When fully developed, R1, which for now uses wheels instead of legs to get around, will be deployed as a "smart companion for ...

Robots have amazing efficiency compared to human beings. Using algorithms that optimize work processes, robots are engineered to perform their assigned tasks to completion as efficiently as possible.

A research team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) was nominated for two best-paper awards at the International Conference on Robotics and Automation this week. The annual event, ...

A team of researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology has developed an algorithm that teaches robots how to fall, allowing them to trip up with a little more grace, and hopefully cause ...

Mobile robot algorithms and coordination have emerged as a central discipline in robotics research, combining computational theory, distributed algorithms, and systems engineering. These algorithms ...

A new tool for predicting a person's movement trajectory may help humans and robots work together in close proximity. In 2018, researchers at MIT and the auto manufacturer BMW were testing ways in ...

At a major robotics competition held in June, several multi-million-dollar robots struggled to perform even simple tasks like climbing a flight of stairs; some even toppled over with what seemed like ...

There's no question that robots will play an increasingly central role in our lives in the future, but to get to a stage where they can be genuinely useful there are still a number of challenges to be ...

Researchers developed a deep learning neural network to aid the design of soft-bodied robots. The algorithm optimizes the arrangement of sensors on the robot, enabling it to complete tasks as ...
