Tapomayukh Bhattacharjee has been working on assistive robotics for approximately a decade, and in speaking to the people who would benefit from new technologies, he’s come to a few realizations.
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.
Engineers at Princeton and North Carolina State University have combined ancient paper folding and modern materials science to create a soft robot that bends and twists through mazes with ease.
A research team from ETH Zurich and the University of Zurich (UZH) has developed a novel approach to treating spinal cord injuries: controllable microrobots deliver stem cells directly to the site of an injury, where they promote nerve cell regeneration.
Cornell engineers have developed a robotic collective that behaves less like a machine and more like a material that flows, reshapes and adapts to its environment without centralized control.
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.

Removing litter from oceans and seas is a costly and time-consuming process. As part of a European cooperative project, a team at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) is developing a robotic system that uses machine learning methods to locate and collect waste under water.
This unique project delivered by Photoneo to Dedoles required the development of a unique, specially designed automation solution for the sorting of parcels prepared for shipment and their placement into different containers based on the delivery company.
Based on the 'Crover Effect' for locomotion in granular media, the CROVER robot is able to move through bulk solids and powders. The team wins $25,000 of manufacturing support from Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials to take their design to the next level.
The engineers of DMG MORI’s ADDITIVE INTELLIGENCE team redesigned the Robo2Go head for additive manufacturing using nTopology. The new design is 62% lighter, has 60% fewer components, and improves the handling precision of the robot by a factor of 16x.
This solution for automated pallet unloading was developed by MV Center. For precise and reliable robot navigation, the system uses robust 3D vision technology from Photoneo.
