In 2018, researchers at MIT and the auto manufacturer BMW were testing ways in which humans and robots might work in close proximity to assemble car parts. In a replica of a factory floor setting, the ...

Mobile robot algorithms and coordination have emerged as a central discipline in robotics research, combining computational theory, distributed algorithms, and systems engineering. These algorithms ...

A new algorithm developed to help robots manipulate and interact with objects could lead to a potential future for robotic home help as seen in numerous science fiction films. The breakthrough in ...

Developments in autonomous robotics have the potential to revolutionize manufacturing processes, making them more flexible, customizable, and efficient. But coordinating fleets of autonomous, mobile ...

This diagram visually shows the steps taken by the algorithm to range the orientation of points in a scene. It finds a variety of axis that will fit the point clusters (red, blue, green) where it will ...

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 ...

A robotic dog produced by CVTE, a high-tech company focused on interactive displays and AI, has been widely photographed at ...
