simple triple Delta scooting around the floor, supported by wire training wheels below. It makes a good cat toy, but we’d love to see a bipedal robot with this style of legs.

A flexible robotic arm mimics an elephant's trunk, twisting and stiffening to perform tasks, offering safer alternatives to rigid robots.

Graduate student Felix Yanwei Wang nudges a robotic arm that is manipulating a bowl in a toy kitchen set up in the group’s lab. Using the framework Wang and his collaborators developed ...

Imagine that a robot is helping you clean the dishes. You ask it to grab a soapy bowl out of the sink, but its gripper slightly misses the mark.

pet and baby toys, and light shoes. The robotic arm extends from the top of the model and has “five-axis” movement, meaning ...

Researchers in San Francisco developed a robot arm that receives signals from the brain to a computer, allowing a man who could not speak or move to interact with objects. The device, known as a ...

This sampling method enabled the researchers' framework to outperform the other methods they compared it to during simulations and experiments with a real robot arm in a toy kitchen. While their ...
