Toyota Research Institute Showcases Latest Robotics Research Aimed at Amplifying Human Ability in the Home
TRI's robotics research is guided by the Japanese notion of Ikigai, a powerful idea that every person's life should have meaning and purpose. TRI's human centered approach turns typical AI philosophy on its head.
How has technology had such an impact on the Manufacturing industry?
Whether it's the food takeaway industry utilising mobile apps or sports events using video assisted refereeing, technological advances are helping our world progress and become better.
The Human Touch
Global development and technology consultancy Cambridge Consultants has developed a robot that can emulate human touch. Hank uses sensors and soft grippers controlled by airflows.
World's first haptic telerobot hand (Tactile Telerobot) to officially launch at first public event at CEATEC 2019 in Japan
The exhibit will be divided into several scenario-based themes, each demonstrating a distinctive way to implement the technology. There will be scenarios for the use of robots in a kitchen, school, fish market, living room, laboratory and skill sharing.
Robot Control with Semantic Commands
We are developing a general purpose, robotic control software platform that allows the user to use semantic commands, in a simulated VR environment.
Study: A robot with a firm yet gentle grasp
UB engineers develop a dynamic gripper that mimics the adjustable grip of a human hand, an advancement that could improve industrial safety
Industrial Robotics Companies to Watch Out for in 2020
The role of robots is increasing in the automation of business processes. Robots are even touching human life and are also being used in customer-facing roles.
Evolution of Embedded Vision Technologies for Robotics
The traditional vision architecture is changing, with an evolution from cameras and sensors to networked and smart-enabled, compact embedded devices with the processing power required for real-time analysis.
Why Repeatability and Accuracy are Different in Motion and Positioning Related Applications
The terms accuracy and repeatability are often used interchangeably. However, accuracy is not possible without repeatability, but repeatability is achievable without accuracy. There are other errors, too, non-linearity errors, and linearity errors caused by thermal effects.
The Future of Unmanned Operations in Harsh Environments Requires Innovation
Hirth Engines Head of International Business Development, Peter Lietz, highlights the importance for engine manufacturers to advance endurance capabilities of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in extreme terrains.
Researchers create new kind of robot composed of many simple particles with no centralized control or single point of failure
In a new study published today in Nature, researchers at Columbia Engineering and MIT Computer Science & Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) demonstrate for the first time a way to make a robot composed of many loosely coupled components, or "particles."
DC Motors as Generators
Both brushed and brushless DC motors can be operated as generators. However, there are some important points to consider when designing the drive.
A Step Closer to Self-Aware Machines - Columbia engineers create a robot that can imagine itself
Columbia Engineering researchers have made a major advance in robotics by creating a robot that learns what it is, from scratch, with zero prior knowledge of physics, geometry, or motor dynamics.
ASU's Southwest Robotics Symposium previews the new technology guiding the next wave of human-robot interaction
"We can rely on the brain of the human and the muscles, eyes and sense of touch of the robot in places where humans cannot, or should not, be," said Khatib. "For example, we will be able to safely repair underwater structures
Power Density in Robotics
