New AI can recreate the brush strokes used to create a famous painting by looking at the finished image.

As many of you may have just read, Boston Dynamics' Spot quadruped robot is now commercially available – for a cool US$75,000. If that's a little outside of your budget, then you might be more interested in the much cheaper open-source Solo 8.

Training robots to guide injured workers through simulated tasks could make return-to-work evaluations and treatment programs more effective and accessible, according to researchers at the University ...

The UC Berkeley team, led by Dr. Ajay Tanwani, has developed a semi-supervised AI deep-learning system, dubbed Motion2Vec.

For the next several months, visitors to the Atlanta Botanical Garden will be able to observe the testing of a new high-tech tool in the battle to save some of the world's most endangered species. SlothBot, ...

How do you control the extra limb if your own hands are busy—say, if you’re carrying a package? MIT researchers at Professor Harry Asada’s lab have an idea. They are using subtle finger movements in sensorized gloves to control the supernumerary limb. The results are promising, and they’ve demonstra...

Disinfection drones can be effective for relatively small areas, but more work needs to be done on autonomous application of UV-C, found Exyn Technologies.

While legged robots are able to perform feats such as climbing stairs, their wheeled counterparts are faster and less complex. The Ascento robot offers the best of both worlds, as it has two jumping legs – each one with a wheel on the bottom.

The e-noses can be dispersed across an orchard to ensure each tree is harvested at optimal times

As with many technologies, nature outdid us long ago in terms of data storage – just one gram of DNA can store 215 million GB of data. But artificial DNA data storage systems could soon become more practical, thanks to a new technology named DORIS that can read and write files at room temperature wi...

Piestro CEO Massimo De Marco tells The Robot Report how restaurants can benefit from an automated pizzeria now in development.

 

The technology, which combines hardware and software, will make it possible for places like factories to roll out super responsive machines.

Riding on the top of public buses could make drone delivery much more efficient

Not only are drone services safer than manual inspections and cheaper than helicopters, says PrecisionHawk, but they also yield better data.

Artificial synapses are an important step towards emulating the supercomputer that is the human brain. Now scientists have successfully bridged the gap between organic and artificial, with biohybrid synapses that let living cells communicate with electronic systems, not with electrical signals but w...
