We asked ANYbotics, Boston Dynamics, and Clearpath Robotics about irresponsible or unethical use of their robots
Thermoelectric systems are based on technology that leverages differences in temperature to generate electricity, and we’ve seen how this approach can be applied to the world’s tiniest refrigerator, cooking pots that power smartphones and even thermoelectric paint. A new example from scientists at t...
Dr. Robert Carey, a urologist at the Sarasota Memorial Hospital, is being honored for doing more than 2,000 life-saving prostate cancer removal surgeries all by using a robot.
Collaborative Mobile Robots are one of the most important hits of Industry 4.0, where robots and humans operate together, each one providing its own particular strengths and complementing each othe…
Ai-Da the robot has produced a series of "self-portraits" that aim to challenge our ideas about creativity and identity.
Training AI agents via gameplay could yield a more flexible and general intelligence
NASA released footage of the Mars Perseverance Rover's final descent and landing. This is the first ever video of a rover landing on Mars.
Although it's getting more common to see swarms of illuminated drones being used for aerial light shows, simultaneously charging and launching all of those aircraft can still be tricky. That's where the Flying Drone Blanket is intended to come in.
When scientists wish to gather oceanographic data over long distances – but without disturbing marine life – autonomous "underwater gliders" are often used. A new one is claimed to be highly maneuverable, yet it has no external propulsion or steering systems.
Generally speaking, the term robot designates some type of large mechanical metal monstrosity designed to fulfill whatever task humans need fulfilling. But there other types of robots out there, and they are even spookier.
Spot the robot.
Roboticists and engineers are searching for new ways to create machines that might help repair, maintain or inspect the undersea components of the growing offshore industry.
Advances in robotics — in size, vision, artificial intelligence — help them progress further upstream in bakeries.
When people ask me which robotics categories are poised for the biggest growth, I often point to agriculture. The technology already has a strong foothold in places like warehouse and logistics, but it’s impossible to look at the American – and global – farming community and not see a lot of potenti...
A group of meme-spinning pranksters attached a paintball gun to the dynamic robot to make a point about the automated future.
If you can't have a real pet, perhaps a robot that looks like an inflated cat will suffice.
Multiple drones can harvest an orchard thanks to a single autonomous digital brain in a ground-based unit. Read the details here.
Soft robots are gaining a lot of attention in research circles, largely due to the safety benefits for humans who might need to work in their vicinity, and from an engineering lab at the University of California, San Diego comes an interesting new example of this technology in the form of a robot th...
Just like any human bartender, Rob will be in charge of creating both boozy and non-alcoholic cocktails using over 40 ingredients.
After safely landing on the surface of Mars Thursday, NASA's Perseverance rover has sent back a never-before-seen view: what it looks like to land on Mars. The rover also returned some new color images of its landing site.
NASA's Perseverance rover is expected to land on the surface of Mars on Thursday, February 18, around 3:55 p.m. ET. The agency is sharing multiple ways for people to experience the landing.
Velox is a drone, generator, and robotic animal all in one. It can cover nearly every type of terrain on land and make way through water, transitioning seamlessly between the two different environments. Since it was initially designed to be a green generator, it can charge itself as it moves.
As a critic of modern life and technology, Ai-Da can draw thanks to artificial intelligence.
Ex-certified ANYmal can perform autonomous inspections in hazardous locations including oil and gas platforms
