This Hackaday prize entry from [saul] is the beginning of a reconfigurable kit of 3D printed parts and servo motors for robotics learning. With just access to a printer, a …read more Continue reading Hackaday Prize 2023: Bolt Bot Micro Servo Droids
A team of researchers has created a way to inexpensively manufacture acoustic head simulators. They can help measure the way we take in and process sound – especially in noisy environments like cocktail parties.Continue ReadingCategory: TechnologyTags:… Continue reading 3D-printed heads talk, swivel, and listen to improve audio devices
Thanks to 3D printing and inexpensive controllers, a robot arm doesn’t need to break the bank anymore. Case in point? [Build Some Stuff] did a good-looking compact arm with servos …read more Continue reading $60 Robot Arm is Compact
MIT’s Improbable Artificial Intelligence Lab has developed a Dexterous Ball Manipulation with a Legged Robot (DribbleBot) that can dribble a soccer ball under real-world conditions similar to those encountered by a human player.Continue ReadingCategory… Continue reading DribbleBot learns to dribble a soccer ball under realistic conditions
While punching bags do help boxers hone their craft, the things don’t replicate one key aspect of real boxing – they don’t punch back. The Boxing Buddy, which is currently on Indiegogo, is designed to address that shortcoming.Continue ReadingCategory: … Continue reading Boxing Buddy training aid lets punching bags fight back
It’s always great fun to build your own robot. Sometimes, though, if you’re doing various projects or research, it’s easier to buy an existing robot and then use it to …read more Continue reading Design Files Released for the PR2 Robot
While honeybees are famously difficult to study, altering natural behaviors if any outside influences are sensed, they’re also incredibly susceptible to colony collapse due to the cold. If hive temperatures drop below 50 °F (10 °C), the bees cease buzz… Continue reading Robotic beehive provides vital life support to chilly honeybees
For some time now, Hyundai Motor Group has been growing itself into as much a robotics company as an automaker, showing the world glimpses of a future that’s both fascinating and a little terrifying. Its latest featured robot won’t scale the apocalypti… Continue reading Hyundai shows robotic EV auto-charger in action
The development of a cutting-edge graphene sensor has led to the creation of an interface that is able to accurately control a robot using thought alone. The development has positive implications not only for healthcare but for a range of other industr… Continue reading New graphene sensors make for better brain-machine interface
An uncharacteristically subdued Elon Musk presented some short video on the Optimus prototype, noting that as recently as October last year, it had to be rolled out on stage to wave like a politician.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, TechnologyTags: … Continue reading Musk expects Tesla Bot to be a much bigger business than its cars
