The hospitality industry can leverage the gender characteristics of service robots to influence customers' decisions, according to new research from a team in the Penn State School of Hospitality Management.
Service robots have evolved from simple automated machines to intelligent adaptive systems that can navigate unpredictable environments and interact with humans.
AI-powered artificial muscles made from pliable materials are reshaping recovery, from stroke rehabilitation to prosthetic design. These machines help people regain motion, strength, and confidence.
A team of researchers from ITMO University, Tel Aviv University, and University of Aveiro have come up with a new way to improve the mechanical properties of spider webs.
EPFL researchers have developed a customizable soft robotic system that uses compressed air to produce shape changes, vibrations, and other haptic, or tactile, feedback in a variety of configurations.
New tool from MIT CSAIL creates realistic virtual kitchens and living rooms where simulated robots can interact with models of real-world objects, scaling up training data for robot foundation models.
In the world of automotive manufacturing, precision is not optional — it is mandatory. Every component, from wiring harnesses to interior panels to fasteners, must be installed correctly, in the correct sequence, at the correct tempo, every single time.
In the rapidly growing field of industrial robotics, reliable connectivity is essential for maintaining high signal integrity, especially in environments characterized by continuous motion and harsh conditions.
In this episode, we cover how researchers trained a quadruped robot to play badminton, teaching it to track the shuttlecock, move into position, and swing a racket in real time, showing how AI can bring robots closer to human-like coordination.
A team of scientists from ITMO University has developed software that can automatically track potential human causes of industrial accidents, such as drinking or smoking in the workplace.
