Back in January, researchers showed off the kitchen skills of an open-source Aloha housekeeping robot. Now the Unleashed project gets to grips with knotting shoelaces, hanging shirts and even repairing other robots.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, T… Continue reading AI-powered robots can now autonomously repair other bots
Northrop Grumman introduces its first completed prototype Manta Ray Uncrewed Underwater Vehicle (UUV) that it is developing for DARPA. The extra-large submarine glider is designed to carry out long-range undersea missions without human assistance.Conti… Continue reading Northrop Grumman debuts Manta Ray robotic underwater glider
Hyundai and Kia are gunning for office mailroom jobs with the introduction of the DAL-e Delivery robot, that can not only distribute packages around a building autonomously, but can also do the coffee run too.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, Technol… Continue reading Hyundai’s DAL-e delivery bot takes on the morning coffee run
A supersonic drone that will be propelled by a revolutionary new engine has taken to the skies for the first time. When Venus Aerospace’s aircraft does go supersonic on a later date, it will be powered by a Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine (RDRE).Cont… Continue reading Video: Supersonic drone flies with revolutionary detonation engine
The uOne underwater robot may soon be taking on risky, labor-intensive tasks currently performed by human scuba divers. It boasts a unique combination of traits from two different types of undersea bots.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, TechnologyTag… Continue reading Hybrid underwater robot takes aim at scuba-diving tasks
A month ago, we were impressed by these robots being able to pick things up, put them in the right spot, open doors and charge themselves. But new video released hours ago makes it clear that autonomous humanoid work is starting to accelerate like mad…. Continue reading Video: Fast-learning Eve humanoids can now fold laundry autonomously
“The video contains no teleoperation,” says Norwegian humanoid robot maker 1X. “No computer graphics, no cuts, no video speedups, no scripted trajectory playback. It’s all controlled via neural networks, all autonomous, all 1X speed.”Continue ReadingCa… Continue reading OpenAI’s Eve humanoids make impressive progress in autonomous work
Although there’s been considerable excitement over the past half century of a Jetsons-like robotic future, outside of a few niche uses of our day-to-day lives there hasn’t been much in …read more Continue reading Lawny Five Keeps Lawn Mowed, Snow Plowed
Mesmerizing video shows Teledyne FLIR’s new autonomous drone-catching cradle matching the movements of a model helicopter and grabbing it the instant it’s within reach. It’ll allow soldiers to launch and recover drones from inside their vehicles.Contin… Continue reading Auto-follow chopsticks grab flying UAVs from the back of a vehicle
Swiss researchers are working on an environmental monitoring robot named Avocado that’s been inspired by abseiling spiders. The fruit-shaped bot uses a winch and rotors to lower itself through the canopy and gather data on life in the treetops.Continue… Continue reading Avocado robot swings from trees to gather canopy data
