Imagine a robot that doesn’t just follow commands but actually plans its actions, adjusts its movements on the go, and learns from feedback—much like a human would. This may sound like a far-fetched ...

Humanoid robots have improved emotional mimicry to the point of being able to cry during an emotional conversation.

Evolution is a very slow process, due largely to the fact that nature doesn't "know" in advance which features of an animal will be beneficial. A new AI-based algorithm does know, however, allowing it ...

Plenty of companies have demoed home robots, but few, if any, have actually been released. The truth is that even the most advanced robots aren't very good at interacting with objects and environments ...

Researchers have designed an algorithm that can intercept a man-in-the-middle (MitM) cyberattack on an unmanned military robot and shut it down in seconds. The algorithm, tested in real time, achieved ...

Radar, a key sensor for autonomous mobile robots, uses radio waves to determine the distance, speed and direction of ...

Wildcat simultaneous localization and mapping and stereo depth fusion are two promising sensing algorithms that could lead to true autonomous movement. NASA astronaut Megan McArthur poses with the ...

Machine learning algorithms can analyze test data quickly and then learn from that data for the next set of experiments executed by the robots. These machine learning algorithms can quickly identify ...

Zoomlion Heavy Industry Science & Technology Co., Ltd. ("Zoomlion") recently fielded its independently developed humanoid robots at the second World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing, where they ...

A four-legged robot that keeps crawling even after all four of its legs have been hacked off with a chainsaw is the stuff of nightmares for most people. For Deepak Pathak, cofounder and CEO of the ...
