There are many incredible open-source robotic arm projects out there, but there’s a dearth of affordable, stable, and mobile robotic platforms with arms. That’s where XLeRobot comes ...

This dual cross-linking design lets the muscle switch stiffness on demand. In lab tests, its stiffness jumps from about 213 kilopascals — soft, like rubber — to 292 megapascals, hundreds of times ...

Starfront Observatories allows amateur astronomers to rent a spot for their telescopes and photograph the cosmos over a high-speed data connection. In a year and a half, Starfront Observatories in ...

Abstract: Reinforcement learning is extensively employed in control tasks of robotic arms. However, factors such as noise and uncertainty introduced by complex environments often lead to the unstable ...

Abstract: This paper presents an automated disassembly system using the Omron Viper 650 robotic arm, focused on separating two plates joined by four screws. In the first phase, different end effectors ...

Machine vision is a collection of technologies that give automated equipment a high-level understanding of the immediate environment from images. Without machine vision software, digital images would ...

SoftBank Group Corp. agreed to acquire ABB Ltd.’s industrial robots unit at an enterprise value of almost $5.4 billion, reflecting billionaire Masayoshi Son’s growing bets on emerging technology in ...

A Neuralink brain chip patient is now controlling a robot arm with his mind. On Monday, Nick Wray posted a video of himself demonstrating the capability by directing the robot arm to pick up a cup. In ...

A new video from South Korea’s Hanyang University has taken a lighthearted spin on robotics research. It shows a robotic hand performing the moonwalk to Michael Jackson’s Smooth Criminal. The ...

The Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing, or ARM, Institute has issued a new Tech Project Call centered on strengthening the marine industrial base, or MIB. The call centers on demonstrating mature ...
