When a robot company is founded by graduates from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, you can bet they’ll create some innovative products. iRobot, famed for the Roomba robo-vac, is arguably the ...

Robots are super interesting, but you probably shouldn’t start learning about them with a full-sized industrial SCARA arm or anything. Better to learn with something smaller and simpler to understand.

Robot builders make a convincing case that in 2001, robots are where personal computers were in 1980-poised to break into the marketplace as common corporate tools and ubiquitous consumer products ...

A team led by Northwestern Engineering researchers has developed the first artificial intelligence (AI) to date that can intelligently design robots from scratch. To test the new AI, the researchers ...

Researchers from AMOLF's Soft Robotic Matter group have shown that a group of small autonomous, self-learning robots can adapt easily to changing circumstances. They connected these simple robots in a ...

Artificial intelligence can design an autonomous robot in 30 seconds flat on a laptop or smartphone. It’s not quite time to panic about just anybody being able to create the Terminator while waiting ...

Dana Randall, ADVANCE Professor of Computing and Daniel Goldman, Dunn Family Professor of Physics, head a group of Georgia Tech researchers that use BOBbots (behaving, organizing, buzzing bots) to ...

A research team from the Robotics and AI Institute (RAI) has developed a two-wheeled, bicycle-like robot platform called the ...

[Lance] loves making simple robots with his laser cutter. He finds great satisfaction from watching his robots operate using fairly simple mechanisms and designs a whole slew of them inspired by ...

Industrial robot adoption has reached a point of no return. Automated machinery has become an industry standard and will only become increasingly common as time goes on. As this trend continues, ...

Microrobots have long promised precision drug delivery inside the human body, but making them practical has remained difficult. Many designs are complex, expensive to manufacture, or hard to control ...
