In sci-fi tales, artificial intelligence often powers all sorts of clever, capable, and occasionally homicidal robots. A revealing limitation of today’s best AI is that, for now, it remains squarely ...

Inside a UNC-Chapel Hill Science lab sits an autonomous robot. Imagine a machine like a Roomba, but with an arm, so it can pick up things like a dirty sock off the floor. A group of researchers from ...

Alphabet Inc.’s artificial intelligence lab is debuting two new models focused on robotics, which will help developers train robots to respond to unfamiliar scenarios — a longstanding challenge in the ...

It’s becoming a little easier to build sophisticated robotics projects at home. Earlier this week, AI dev platform Hugging Face released an open AI model for robotics called SmolVLA. Trained on ...

Google DeepMind has unveiled Gemini Robotics On-Device, a new artificial intelligence model that runs directly on robotic hardware without needing a constant internet connection. The announcement was ...

Robots are super interesting, but you probably shouldn’t start learning about them with a full-sized industrial SCARA arm or anything. Better to learn with something smaller and simpler to understand.

The new model from Google DeepMind is a huge step toward robots that can generalize. Google DeepMind has released a new model, Gemini Robotics, that combines its best large language model with ...

Leaders at River Spring Living in New York are on the verge of flipping the “on” switch for a “rehab model for the future” that aims to revolutionize the way therapy is delivered. Featuring robotic ...

In a press release shared with Inc., Figure says that 02 is the “highest performing humanoid robot” on the market. The company claims that 02 incorporates advances across the robot’s entire design, ...

Robots typically excel at structured, repeatable tasks such as welding body panels together for cars or painting those vehicles. They've long struggled with more variable, less-structured work such as ...

Insect-scale legged robots have become increasingly capable in recent years but are still severely limited in terms of onboard resources for computation and power. On the other hand, simple models for ...
