Many robots are equipped with cameras to allow them to see the world. These digital eyes record sequences of still images which must somehow be interpreted as motion. A popular approach is optical ...

Researchers have developed an AI control system that enables soft robotic arms to learn a wide repertoire of motions and ...

It takes more than words to cure a lonely heart. Scientists have discovered that adding music to a robot's repertoire makes it feel more lifelike and emotionally supportive.

New neuromorphic motion-detection hardware slashes processing delays in robots and autonomous vehicles, promising faster ...

Robots and self-driving cars could soon benefit from a new kind of brain-inspired hardware that can allegedly detect movement and react faster than a human. A new study published in the journal Nature ...

The breakthrough builds on neuromorphic engineering, a field that designs hardware modeled after the human brain. Unlike traditional processors, which separate memory and computation, neuromorphic ...

Researchers from Beihang University and the Beijing Institute of Technology in China developed a brain-inspired chip which enables robots to detect and react to movement at four times the speed ...

Robots have come a long way since they were first imagined over 100 years ago, and this new Chinese model continues to push the tech forward.

China’s fairy-inspired humanoid robot Elf Xuan drew widespread attention for its lifelike facial expressions at a recent robotics gala.

Researchers at the University of Waterloo have developed a system that allows humans to ...

A group of researchers in the UK has developed an unusual soft robot that moves without motors, joints, or hard components. Instead, it reacts to electric fields, allowing it to shift shape and move ...

China’s Spring Festival Gala showcased humanoid robots performing kung fu, dance and acrobatics, highlighting rapid advances in robotics and AI. The performances sparked concerns over China’s ...
