DARPA) is experimenting with using a swarm of autonomous drones and ground robots to assist with military missions.

The bots are helping human officers maintain order on Chinese roads.

Here is another robot dog that can negotiate uneven terrain and move through narrow spaces. The Laikago Pro Robot Dog comes with 12 powerful motors and

The light-touch robotic cane, called CANINE, acts as a cane-like mobile assistant.

Deploying robots in manufacturing can help companies create efficiencies in performing complex manufacturing-related activities, and reduce production costs and achieve quick ROI.

​Although jellyfish may not be the fastest animals in the ocean, they do swim in an energy-efficient manner – a manner that underwater robots might do well to copy. With that in mind, Chinese scientists have created a robotic jellyfish, that may someday autonomously explore the briny depths.

Exoskeletons are finally living up to expectations, as the technology improves, health insurers begin reimbursements, and industrial usage grows.

Matt Beane, assistant professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, finds that robots, machine learning, and AI are changing how we train for our jobs — not just how we do them. His study shows that robot-assisted surgery is disrupting the traditional learning pathway of younger physicia...
