Researchers at Rice University have developed a novel method, to control and use the dead bodies of spiders for gripping micro-sized objects. Some may view spiders as creepy and dangerous and might...
These soft manipulators, driven by air pressure, can grab and manipulate soft objects, finding wider applications in robotic grippers and wearable devices. It is no doubt that traditional robots can...
Nature has inspired engineers at UNSW Sydney to develop a soft fabric robotic gripper which behaves like an elephant's trunk to grasp, pick up and release objects without breaking them. The...
Researchers from the University of Tsukuba find that praise delivered by robots and virtual agents improves offline learning. Positive reinforcement such as verbal praises are known to enhance...
Researchers from India and the UK develop a feedback scheme to lower positional error in brain-controlled robot arms, paving the way to greatly enhancing the quality of life for people suffering from...
A group from the College of Engineering at Peking University explains how schooling fish conserve energy in a collective motion. The collective behaviour of certain animals has piqued the interest of...
Clinicians from the National Cancer Centre Singapore (NCCS) and Singapore General Hospital (SGH) partnered with Biobot Surgical Pte Ltd, to develop a robot to automate nasal swabbing for COVID-19...
Researchers present new findings demonstrating the promise of event-based vision and touch sensing in combination with Intel’s neuromorphic processing for robotics. Today, robots are only able to...
The China-made robotic system, MicroPort demonstrated its abilities through a complete Robot Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy (RALRP). As the first robotic-surgery device made domestically...
An intelligent robot has been developed to assist professional pharmacists to provide pharmacy and medication services and ensure safe drug use for the public. The robot is functionally equivalent to...
