Robotic Coyotes Guard U.S. Airfields with Cyber-Charm and Force

Applied Science, Robotics /

Why use an ordinary robot when you could deploy a robotic coyote? That’s the idea behind the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center’s (ERDC) project—a cybernetic prairie predator designed to keep airfields free of dangerous wildlife. Airfields constantly face the challenge of birds and other wildlife, which can seriously endanger aircraft and operations. Birds […]

Waymo Tests Robotaxis in Philly and NYC

Applied Science, Robotics /

Waymo launched “road trips” to Philly and NYC, signaling Northeast expansion plans. These trips don’t mean a commercial launch is imminent. As with past trips to cities like Houston and Orlando, Waymo sends human-driven cars with autonomous tech to map new areas. Later, they test the vehicles in autonomous mode—with safety drivers—gathering data to refine

MIT’s Vision-Based Technology Allows Robots To Recognize And Understand Their Own Bodies

Robotics, Tech /

At MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), a soft robotic hand slowly curls its fingers around a small object. What’s remarkable isn’t its mechanical structure or any built-in sensors—because it has none. Instead, the system depends entirely on a single camera that observes the robot’s actions and uses that visual input to guide
