Some people think they can pull a fast one by “returning” something they’ve bought, but replacing the original with a knockoff and keeping the real deal. UPS’s return centers are using machine ...

Here’s a fun build from [RootSaid] that is suitable for people just getting started with microcontrollers and robotics — an Arduino-controlled two-wheeled robot. The video assumes you already have one ...

Abstract: This letter presents the details of designing a spherical tensegrity robot with reduced active tendons to perform decoupled center of mass movement and vertical jumping. The constrained ...

Robots have just shrunk to the size of microorganisms. Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have unveiled what they describe as the world’s smallest fully programmable, autonomous robots, ...

The robot mimics the flexible “hammock-like” shoulder structure to investigate the biomechanical functions of dog musculoskeletal systems.Suzumori Endo Robotics Laboratory/YouTube Engineers in Japan ...

Robots the size of a single-celled organism can now sense their environment, make decisions, and act on them without any outside help. Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania and University of ...

Abstract: The dynamic and unknown human behaviors in human–robot interaction make it challenging for collision-free robot manipulation. Although sampling-based model predictive control (MPC) has ...

What’s keeping them off the street is a challenge robotics researchers have circled for decades. Building robots is easier than making them function in the real world. A robot can repeat a TikTok ...

It'll likely be a while before we have humanoid robots taking over our household chores, but what you can count on sooner is seeing more robots in industrial settings, like factories and warehouses.

Nearly a third of US teenagers say they use AI chatbots daily, a new study finds, shedding light on how young people are embracing a technology that’s raised critical safety concerns around mental ...

We have a housing crisis. The median U.S. income earner can afford a home that costs around $298,000, yet the median U.S. home price is $440,000. There is also an overall housing shortage.
