Robot teams that can rapidly map unfamiliar buildings, disaster zones, or extraterrestrial terrain have long been a holy ...

A first-of-its-kind benchmark from the Technical University of Munich compares algorithms for optimizing industrial robot ...

A new algorithm may make robots safer by making them more aware of human inattentiveness. In computerized simulations of packaging and assembly lines where humans and robots work together, the ...

Researchers have created a dataset of 6,200 solar panel images designed to support AI-based navigation of cleaning robots.

Plenty of companies have demoed home robots, but few, if any, have actually been released. The truth is that even the most advanced robots aren't very good at interacting with objects and environments ...

Machine learning algorithms can analyze test data quickly and then learn from that data for the next set of experiments executed by the robots. These machine learning algorithms can quickly identify ...

What just happened? Researchers have developed an algorithm that allows robots to autonomously identify weaknesses in their skills and then systematically practice to improve them. It's akin to giving ...

A four-legged robot that keeps crawling even after all four of its legs have been hacked off with a chainsaw is the stuff of nightmares for most people. For Deepak Pathak, cofounder and CEO of the ...

Researchers have developed a bicycle-inspired robot capable of performing acrobatic maneuvers while maintaining balance ...

In computerized simulations of packaging and assembly lines where humans and robots work together, the algorithm developed to account for human carelessness improved safety by about a maximum of 80% ...
