A robot observes its reflection in a mirror, learning its own morphology and kinematics for autonomous self-simulation. The process highlights the intersection of vision-based learning and robotics, ...

Thermal sensors and synthetic data can help train robots for a wider range of scenarios than traditional sensors alone, says Bifrost AI.

Researchers have developed small robots that can work together as a collective that changes shape and even shifts between solid and “fluid-like” states — a concept that should be familiar to anyone ...

At Kingwood Middle School and Kingwood High School, students are getting a more hands-on learning experience with building robots thanks to a $25,000 grant to expand its robotics program. In May, the ...

The race to build the world’s first functional humanoid robots is no longer just a contest of hardware. It’s a high-stakes battle over two radically different philosophies of development, the crux of ...

At UC Berkeley, researchers in Sergey Levine’s Robotic AI and Learning Lab eyed a table where a tower of 39 Jenga blocks stood perfectly stacked. Then a white-and-black robot, its single limb doubled ...

In the agricultural sector, labor shortages are increasing the need for automated harvesting using robots. However, some ...
