Proprietary systems have traditionally dominated the control of three and four-axis wafer handling robots for in-vacuum and in-air wafer applications. As a result, these systems can be limited in ...

For decades, Hollywood has trained us to fear the moment machines become self-aware. The second someone says “autonomous ...

Microsoft has introduced a new artificial intelligence model aimed at pushing robots beyond controlled ...

Human–robot interaction (HRI) and gesture-based control systems represent a rapidly evolving research field that seeks to bridge the gap between human intuition and robotic precision. This area ...

Teleoperation systems constitute an essential field in robotics, enabling human operators to control distant or hazardous environments through remote interfaces. These systems integrate advanced ...

AeroVironment has agreed to acquire robotic control system maker Tomahawk Robotics for approximately $120 million in a push to further extend the interoperability and interconnectivity of unmanned ...

Autonomous robot navigation is an area that has undergone much research and development, leading to a wide range of robotic platforms. These range from mass-produced robotic vacuums, to mid-sized ...

Electric motors are devices that transform electrical energy into mechanical energy, which may be used to move articulated systems. The electric motor must be capable of producing substantial torque ...

One thing robots are pretty good at doing is, well, one thing over and over again. Confront them with objects of different shapes and sizes, and with different actions to perform and that's another ...

In an office at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), a soft robotic hand carefully curls its fingers to grasp a small object. The intriguing part isn't the mechanical ...

A scientist has explained why robots still struggle to pick tomatoes. Labor shortages in agriculture are driving growing ...
