White Castle, the first fast-food restaurant chain, is also the first major company to test Miso Robotics' Flippy frying robot for integration.
We’ve been following the progress of the Hadrian X bricklaying robot since it first started flexing its giant telescopic arm back in 2015, and have seen team behind make a few notable improvements since. We are now seeing what this type of machine can bring to the real world, with the robot completi...
New process said to lower cost by a factor of between three and five times.
Robotic gripper with soft sensitive fingers developed at MIT CSAIL can handle cables with unprecedented dexterity.
MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) has shared the results of a new project in which it built a two-fingered robotic gripper, which has soft pads for dedicated and fine manipulation of objects like cables, sheets and more. The robot’s design is based on how humans use thei...
Panasonic is trialing a robotic mobility device at Takanawa Gateway Station, a new railway station on the JR East Group Yamanote and Keihin-Tohoku lines in Minato, Tokyo that opened in March. The test is scheduled to run from July to September.

On Episode 6 of The Robot Report Podcast, we profile the Pickle Robot Company, discuss robots at Japanese baseball games, and talk ROS on Windows 10.
Robots are learning to do the jobs of human factory workers, bus drivers, burger flippers, butlers, and healthcare workers, among many others – and now, they may be coming for scientists as well. Engineers at the University of Liverpool have developed a robot scientist that can autonomously perform ...
SoftBank, however, is taking things a step further in an effort to make its Japanese baseball team’s games a lot livelier.
The proposed method generalizes well across various degrees of eye openness, different identities.
This morning we're marking the date for Microsoft's next big Xbox showcase, and planning a road trip on Mars.
Computer vision summit CVPR has just (virtually) taken place, and like other CV-focused conferences, there are quite a few interesting papers. More than I could possibly write up individually, in fact, so I’ve collected the most promising ones from major companies here. Facebook, Google, Amazon and ...
Facing a shortage of seasonal workers and rising labour costs, kiwifruit growers may get some relief from robots equipped with a new…
Even if they're wearing face shields and masks, healthcare workers can still understandably be quite leery of getting up close and personal with patients who may have COVID-19. That's where a new robotic system comes in, as it lets clinicians take samples at a distance.
Bioprinting could happen via minimally invasive surgery
In recent years, fish farms have increasingly started using underwater ROVs (remotely operated vehicles) for cleaning the nets that enclose their fish pens. A relatively new one, the StealthCleaner, has a unique triangular form factor.
