In this episode, we talk about a novel approach to multi-material 3D printing that’ll enable the production of soft components capable of contracting in a similar fashion to muscles.
This comprehensive article dives deep into the world of robotics, exploring the history, types, engineering components, applications, and future trends of robots, offering readers an in-depth understanding of how these remarkable machines work and shape our lives.
The hospitality industry can leverage the gender characteristics of service robots to influence customers' decisions, according to new research from a team in the Penn State School of Hospitality Management.
Service robots have evolved from simple automated machines to intelligent adaptive systems that can navigate unpredictable environments and interact with humans.
AI-powered artificial muscles made from pliable materials are reshaping recovery, from stroke rehabilitation to prosthetic design. These machines help people regain motion, strength, and confidence.
A team of researchers from ITMO University, Tel Aviv University, and University of Aveiro have come up with a new way to improve the mechanical properties of spider webs.
EPFL researchers have developed a customizable soft robotic system that uses compressed air to produce shape changes, vibrations, and other haptic, or tactile, feedback in a variety of configurations.
In this episode, we talk about a novel approach to multi-material 3D printing that’ll enable the production of soft components capable of contracting in a similar fashion to muscles.
Life in vans and tiny houses doesn’t rule out comfort and connectivity. What if you could use a simple solution like an SBC to turn them into a smart home?
Smart vending machines powered by high-performance single-board computers can significantly improve customer experience and boost sales with features such as real-time stock monitoring, digital payments, voice/gesture control, and more.
The MAAS project team developed a unique, end-to-end solution for the assembly of airplane wing parts, which uses Photoneo 3D vision technology to handle challenges such as screw hole misalignment, panel to panel step height, and gaps out of specification.
Holonomic systems are important because they allow for efficient mathematical modeling and control of physical systems that have constraints on their motion.
Robots have helped us solve some of the most challenging problems in the industries. They come in all shapes and sizes and take care of many repetitive and hazardous tasks. Based on their design, they can be classified into cartesian, articulated, cylindrical, delta, polar, SCARA, and cobots.
