Hyundai has presented a “Concept Seven” electric SUV it says is an “innovative living space on wheels” for a post-driving future. As such, it’s all about a modular interior that Hyundai says will be many things to many people.Continue ReadingCategory: … Continue reading Hyundai’s Concept Seven: An autonomous, modular living room on wheels
Although the deep ocean floor may seem isolated from life on the rest of the planet, it actually plays a vital role in the global carbon cycle. Scientists are now gaining a better understanding of that role, thanks to a tracked robotic underwater rover… Continue reading Tracked bottom-crawling robot gathers valuable deep-sea data
Back in 2016, we caught wind of an interesting research project looking to make use of Amsterdam’s famously abundant waterways by deploying autonomous vessels to transport people and goods. These so-called Roboats have undergone a number of redesigns i… Continue reading MIT deploys first full-scale autonomous Roboat on canals of Amsterdam
[Andy]’s robot is an autonomous RC car, and he shares the localization algorithm he developed to help the car keep track of itself while it zips crazily around an indoor …read more Continue reading Fast Indoor Robot Watches Ceiling Lights, Instead of the Road
It is by no means an overstatement to say that life as we know it would grind to a halt without cargo ships. If any doubt remained about that fact, …read more Continue reading Automate the Freight: Autonomous Ships Look for Their Niche
Although fiber optic internet cable has many advantages over metal cable, it frequently has to be distributed underground – this limits its usability. Facebook, however, has developed a robot that could wrap the cable around existing power lines.Contin… Continue reading Facebook robot crawls along power lines to deliver fiber optic cable
Increasingly, robots are being used to autonomously clean floors and other surfaces in places like airports and hospitals. You have to wonder, though … how do they know when a floor is sufficiently clean? A new module could soon tell them.Continue Read… Continue reading Sticky-tape module designed to let robots know when floors are clean
It goes without saying that the neutralizing of underwater mines is a dangerous task – definitely one that you’d avoid sending a scuba diver to do, if at all possible. That’s why Pittsburgh-based RE2 Robotics is designing a robotic system to do the job… Continue reading M2NS tech will use robotic arms to autonomously neutralize sea mines
The Royal Navy has released an outline of its vision of how its Future Autonomous Fleet will operate over the next half century, including green aircraft carriers, underwater command centers, and robotic warships.Continue ReadingCategory: Military, Tec… Continue reading Autonomous Fleet concepts set course for Royal Navy’s next 50 years
Before the Wright Brothers powered their way across the sands of Kitty Hawk or Otto Lilienthal soared from the hills of Germany, enveloping hot air in a balloon was the …read more Continue reading Aerodynamic Buoyant Blimp Budges Into Low Cost Cargo Commerce
