While roboticists have introduced increasingly sophisticated robotic systems over the past decades, most of the solutions introduced so far are pre-programmed and trained to tackle specific tasks. The ...

Imagine purchasing a robot to perform household tasks. This robot was built and trained in a factory on a certain set of tasks and has never seen the items in your home. When you ask it to pick up a ...

Asst. Prof. Reza Ahmadzadeh of the Miner School of Computer and Information Sciences envisions a future where more people have robots inside their homes completing housework and other routine tasks.

BIRMINGHAM, Mich. (WXYZ) — The Robot Garage was founded in 2011 to teach engineering, coding, and robotics to kids. Its mission is to inspire the innovators of ...

Today's robotic world is a fairly advanced one, with a wide variety of machines capable of doing a whole lot of amazing things. Yet our world is far from having reached the peak of this industry while ...

Training robots to execute tasks in the real world requires data — the more, the better. The problem is that creating these datasets takes a lot of time and effort, and methods don’t scale well.

But that all might change now, the Post says, since researchers have successfully trained state of the art of robot surgeons with next-generation technology, using videos of procedures, so that ...

The study's findings hint at a future where robots aren't just teaching tools but could act as emotional buffers for children ...

Now that Jorge Posada has retired, the Yankees might want to contact Berthold Bäuml from the German Aerospace Center (DLR). No, he can’t hit a fastball, but the robotics professor has created ...

A new technique enables a human to efficiently fine-tune a robot that failed to complete a desired task with very little effort on the part of the human. Their system uses algorithms, counterfactual ...
