Simple setup enables a 2D radar to trigger a camera to capture an image of an approaching object (animal, person, vehicle).
Most of the ocean is still unexplored. With underwater robotics, scientists can finally access the true final frontier.
From chat bots to self-healing vehicles, artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the way we work and live. Most professions are already feeling the effects of advanced technology. There are several specific ways that artificial intelligence is changing the landscape in a variety of industrie…
While Boston Dynamics has faced competition from the likes of Unitree, ANYbotics and other engineering companies that have created quadrupled robots, Boston Dynamics often stands out from the rest thanks to its expertise, technology and cool yet sophisticated lifelike robots that often captivate…
Years ago, robotics was an emerging trend in the healthcare industry. Many were unaware of how the tech could be used to make processes more straightforward and efficient. That's not the case anymore. Keep reading to find out how many ways the healthcare industry relies on robots.
From the mica found in glittery eyeshadows to the coal that helps create energy to bring power to homes, the mining industry often impacts everyday life. But as one of the most dangerous jobs in the world, mining also can mean losing one's life. Only less than a decade ago, mining jobs only …
Construction is one of the most labor-intensive industries, and yet it remains one of the least automated. But with recent advancements in robotics, we could soon see rapid changes on building sites all over the world.
We see it in any movie or television show that gives us a glimpse of the future — robotic delivery. How long will it be until robotic delivery becomes mainstream? Let's take a closer look at what it will take to turn these fictional delivery-bots into reality and those who are working …
The sci-fi inspired cyborg is almost the opposite of the direction that today's technology is moving. Wearable robotics don't replace human elements, they enhance. The wearable robotics ideal is systems that fit comfortably under clothes and provide the needed support to reduce physical …
Radar uses simple detection filtering to count people, vehicles, or other objects.
Environmental damage and climate change have long-lasting impacts on the world and the way people live. Some organizations have turned to robotics to help their efforts. Robots offer many options for improving the environment, whether they operate on land or at sea. Solving the…
Soft robotics involves highly compliant materials; it is a subfield of robotics focused on creating robots that act very similar to living organisms, including the way they move and adapt to surroundings. Now that we have a better glimpse of what robotic applications in soft robotics may be, let…
FMCW radar reports distances to multiple objects over a wide field of view.
