The robot is currently connected to an external air pump, but that won't be the case with future iterations University of Southern DenmarkDanish researchers have created an origami snake-like robot capable of potentially conducting search and rescue missions at disaster sites or exploring other planets in the future. The robot moves using rectilinear locomotion, mimicking...
Digit is currently being trialed as a way to relieve workers of difficult repetitive tasks, not relieve them of their jobs, says AmazonAgility RoboticsTall, proficient, and resembling insects to some extent, a fleet of Digit robots is currently navigating vacant bins within an Amazon research and development facility. This trial marks the initial phase...
Timepix3 was originally designed for particle detection for giant accelerators like the one at CERNCERNTransitioning from colossal 26 km (16 miles) particle accelerators to operating rooms for brain surgeries, a particle detector initially engineered by physicists at CERN is now employed by researchers in Germany to enhance the precision and safety of brain tumor...
Scientists are creating a robotic exoskeleton platform to address the constraints of treadmills utilized in the rehabilitation of stroke survivors experiencing walking difficulties.
Punyo is a torso-up soft humanoid robot designed to pick things up using its arms, chest and shoulders instead of just its handsToyota Research InstituteThe majority of humanoid robots typically use their hands to pick up objects, but this method doesn't mimic human behavior accurately, especially when dealing with bulky items. Humans utilize not...
HIV is a very complicated virus, and we haven't succeeded in making a vaccine for it yet.Image credit:CanvasSince HIV first appeared, many things have changed. New medicines help people with HIV live well and stop them from spreading the virus. But to truly beat HIV, we need a vaccine.HIV is a big problem worldwide,...
'The Lawnmower' represents a groundbreaking achievement as the inaugural synthetic molecular motor capable of self-propulsion, deriving energy from its action of cutting through proteins, which are artificially generated by AI through DALL-E.The body uses tiny machines made of proteins to do important jobs. These machines help with things like cell division and moving around...

The Heavy Picker 4.0, which can sort items weighing up to 40 kg (88 lb) each at a rate of 2,300 picks per hourZenRoboticsSorting waste is a laborious and potentially risky task that people often tire of quickly. To address this challenge, ZenRobotics develops robots designed to handle the job. Their latest generation boasts...
Norwegian humanoid robot manufacturer 1X states that the video is devoid of teleoperation, computer-generated imagery, editing, speed alterations, or pre-planned movements. Instead, it is entirely guided by neural networks, operating autonomously at normal speed.This is the company that OpenAI supported with its chips last year by investing $25 million in a Series A funding...
