A joint research team has developed a stretchable and adhesive microneedle sensor that can be attached to the skin and stably measure high-quality electrophysiological signals for a long period of ...

Watching a child learn to run is a joyous, but sometimes painful experience. It seems the same is true for [James Bruton]’s impressive Sonic the Self-Balancing robot, even with bendable knees and ...

The sensors for drones and robots market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.4% between 2015 and 2021, reaching a total revenue of US$ 709 million by 2021, according to a new market report from Yole ...

Soft robots can be far more flexible than their rigid relatives, but their vast ranges of motion makes it hard to map the location of their body parts. A new algorithm could give them greater control ...

This Line Following Robot sensor or surface scanner for robots is a very simple, stamp-sized, short range (5-10mm) Infrared proximity detector wired around a standard reflective opto-sensor CNY70(IC1) ...

This article is part of a series of articles based on common questions in robotics. The previous article dealt with the question: What is a robot? Robots are machines designed to perform tasks – ...

Let’s face it, robots are cool. They’re also going to run the world some day, and hopefully, at that time they will take pity on their poor soft fleshy creators (a.k.a. robotics developers) and help ...

Sensor packages are becoming ever-more-dynamic in robotics development. Robots are increasingly savvy at touching, sensing minute forces, and seeing in a variety of spectrums. I've written about the ...
