The Most Peculiar Robot in Beijing may hold the Greatest Significance of the Decade

Applied Science, Robotics /

Beijing has recently become the site of an experiment merging technology, public engagement, and live AI testing. A humanoid robot is now assisting customers at an automated kiosk, eliciting a range of reactions. While its service remains slow and limited, the engineers are less focused on the customer experience than on the hidden capabilities being […]

Robots Can Handle Unsecured Loads Thanks To Tactile Sensors

Applied Science, Robotics /

Moving into a new home often feels like tackling a massive, three-dimensional puzzle when packing the moving truck. Every item must fit perfectly, and any instability or imbalance can make it shift and damage itself during the move. Load Balancing: Humans vs. Robots Humans naturally balance objects—whether a tray of food or a stack of

Humanoid Robots Still Can’t Replace Humans, Says a Robotics Expert

Applied Science, Robotics /

Amazon’s chief roboticist told AFP that the flashy humanoid robots impressing visitors at this week’s Web Summit in Lisbon are still a long way from transforming manual work in factories and warehouses. Tye Brady commented in a Wednesday interview that “it’s somewhat technology for technology’s sake.” He explained, “When we consider robotics, we first ask,

Robots Trained on Spatial Datasets Gain Better Awareness and Object Handling

Applied Science, Robotics /

Machines naturally lag behind humans in navigating their environments. To strengthen the visual perception skills robots need to interpret the world, researchers have created a new training dataset designed to boost their spatial awareness. RoboSpatial Boosts Robots’ Spatial Awareness In recent work, experiments revealed that robots trained on the new dataset, RoboSpatial, surpassed those using

A Modular Robot that Becomes one Quad or Two Bipeds — your Choice

Applied Science, Robotics /

These days, quadruped robots with powered wheels for feet aren’t uncommon, letting them walk or roll depending on the terrain. The modular D1 stands out by functioning as either a quadruped or two independent bipeds. Traditional quadrupeds handle rough terrain well, stepping over obstacles and climbing stairs while keeping four points of contact for stability.
