Mobile robot algorithms and coordination have emerged as a central discipline in robotics research, combining computational theory, distributed algorithms, and systems engineering. These algorithms ...

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 ...

Kaveh Hamed shares a photo of his six-year-old dog Telli in high-speed motion, a source of inspiration for his bio-inspired thinking around legged locomotion. Two years ago, Kaveh Hamed saw his son ...

From disaster zones to underground tunnels, robots are increasingly being sent where humans cannot safely go. But many of ...

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 ...

Researchers have designed an algorithm that can intercept a man-in-the-middle (MitM) cyberattack on an unmanned military robot and shut it down in seconds. The algorithm, tested in real time, achieved ...

Autonomous free-flying robots aboard the International Space Station (ISS) frequently lose their bearings. Without gravity to distinguish up from down, even precision sensors suffer from accumulating ...

A team of researchers from Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) and Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) has developed ...

Robots are great tools for manufacturing and assembly processes that require motion, such as cutting, welding, dispensing, sanding and painting. They are less good at machining solid steel or ...

From expressive robot faces to factory deployments, these seven stories shaped how 2025 will be remembered in humanoid ...
