The China Spring Festival Gala has long been recognized as one of the most influential cultural events in the country, ...

A team led by Northwestern University’s Sam Kriegman built an AI system that designed a walking robot from scratch in seconds, then manufactured the result and watched it move across a lab bench. The ...

Researchers have developed a new algorithm that combines two processes for personalizing robotic prosthetic devices to both optimize the movement of the prosthetic limb and - for the first time - also ...

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 ...

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

Can a robot keep up with Serena Williams? Researchers have taught a humanoid robot to play tennis with humans — and it can ...

Using an advanced imitation learning algorithm and camera perceptions, researchers with the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment ...

A commercial robotic leg could potentially benefit both higher- and lower-mobility amputees, University of Michigan roboticists have shown for the first time. The leg provided the largest gains when ...
