Using satellite imagery or road schematic maps as "side information," the ViKiNG robot can plan its own miles-long route to a goal — measurably outperforming its strongest competitors, even when its side information is inaccurate or outdated.
Is there life on Jupiter's moon Europa? An ocean suspected to be under miles of ice gives science hope. But how could it be reached and explored? Researchers at the DFKI Robotics Innovation Center have been investigating this question since 2012 in the Europa Explorer project series.
The Irish Manufacturing Research developed an advanced solution for automated picking of bread products, which deploys a UR 5 robot navigated by 3D vision and robotic intelligence SW from Photoneo.
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.
From hospital wards to crop fields, from microscopic swarms to biohybrid machines powered by fungi, robotics research at Cornell spans an astonishing range of scale, application and ambition.
An AI control system co-developed by SMART researchers enables soft robotic arms to learn a broad set of motions once and adapt instantly to changing conditions without retraining.
A new glove with more than three dozen actuators across all five fingers and the palm, developed by Cornell researchers, aims to reduce swelling for people suffering from edema.
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.

An enhanced autonomous strategy for laparoscopic soft tissue surgery and demonstrated robotic laparoscopic small bowel anastomosis in phantom and in vivo intestinal tissues.
Research from MIT suggests that a certain type of robust computer-vision model perceives visual representations similarly to the way humans do using peripheral vision.
Multifunctional shape-morphing material with reversible
and rapid polymorphic reconfigurability implemented into a soft robotic morphing drone that autonomously transforms from ground to air vehicle and an underwater morphing machine.
This 3D vision system for a mobile robot picker consists of an AMR with a robotic arm equipped with the Photoneo 3D camera MotionCam-3D. The hand-eye setup allows you to scan and approach each object from an appropriate angle, distance, and position.
Human-robot interaction focuses on teaching robots from third-person observations of demonstrations to make it invariant and robust to the embodiment differences.
