Phase-change actuation has been revived for the era of untethered, electrically driven soft robots. Our team at the University of Coimbra have developed a phase transition soft actuator designed to ...

I asked one of the creators of the arms, Professor Masahiko Inami, to tell me more. This is a small copy of this movement. So physical computing to avoid collision. Also, it's very intuitive. It's ...

When the Armatron first came out, in 1981, robotics engineers started contacting Watanabe. “I wasn’t so much hearing from ...

Amazon's director of applied science Aaron Parness described the technology as a fundamental leap forward in robotics.

They were built to serve, programmed to protect, and designed to obey. From factory floors to festivals, there are moments that show robots are not infallible.

But integrating such surfaces into soft robotic systems, especially ones that can switch adhesion states on demand, has remained difficult. Without active control, these structures grip but cannot ...

These motors spool the tape in or out, enabling the robot to extend its fingers towards an object. The gripper is also able ... the UC San Diego Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.

Add a first-of-its-kind robotic arm to Roborock's advanced smart navigation and cleaning tech, and you have a robot vacuum in ...

Roborock's Saros Z70 is the first-ever robot vacuum with mechanical arm to tidy your space ... a minute of repositioning before I could get a grip on it. While this is a fun idea and ...
