What just happened? Researchers from King's College London have figured out how to give robots complex instructions without using any electricity at all, not even through batteries. The key is a new ...

Engineers have worked out how to give robots complex instructions without electricity for the first time which could free up more space in the robotic ‘brain’ for them to ‘think’. Mimicking how some ...

Horror stories from robot vacuum owners mostly stem from two fixable mishaps: They accidentally bought a dinky robot vacuum or merely haven't set their very capable robot vacuum up for success in the ...

A team led by the University of Oxford has developed a new class of soft robots that operate without electronics, motors, or ...

[Benjie Holson] is an experienced roboticist and wrote an interesting article published on IEEE Spectrum about how the idea most people have of non-roboticists is a myth, and efforts to target this ...

Swarm Intelligence, inspired by collective behaviors in nature, is now being applied to robotics, enabling multiple humanoid robots to collaborate seamlessly on complex tasks. UBTech's Walker S1 ...

Here’s a scene from the not-too-distant future. In a bright, high-tech operating room, a sleek robotic arm stands poised next to the operating table. The autonomous robot won’t operate completely ...

Google is only the latest to fuse large language models with robots. The trend has big implications. This story originally appeared in The Algorithm, our weekly newsletter on AI. To get stories like ...

The big picture: While companies continue to improve robotic hardware, developing AI software to truly bring these machines to life has remained an elusive goal. This is especially disappointing given ...

A team of Chinese researchers has stuck a tiny organoid made from human stem cells into the body of a tiny robot, resulting in a Frankensteinian creation that can learn how to complete certain tasks.
