Nick Morales used his final project in the MSR program to investigate a form of robotics that enables machines to predict human intent to move and position large, heavy objects. Anyone who has ever ...

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

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Being a baby is harder than it looks. Born into the world knowing almost nothing, they spend their first few years getting a PhD in navigating a physical environment. Likewise, ...

Newly developed mathematical rules allow virtual swarms of tiny robots to build without blueprints. In computer simulations, the robots built honeycomb-like structures without ever following - or even ...

Researchers are using generative AI and other techniques to teach robots new skills—including tasks they could perform in homes. Silent. Rigid. Clumsy. Henry and Jane Evans are used to awkward ...

The bell rang, and students started streaming into the classroom in twos and threes. Chatter filled the room as one booming voice shouted directions. Around 60 students gathered for teacher Ian ...

A team of MIT researchers created a speech-to-reality system that enables a robot to build furniture with just a simple ...

Just like bees, the individual robots in this simulation have no master plan. Simply by responding to local cues, they are able to construct honeycomb-like structures. The method could presage a new ...

To revolutionise education and equip young minds with cutting-edge skills, DeZion Heritage, a nursery and primary school in Lagos, is incorporating robotics education into its curriculum. The school ...
