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 ...

Evolution is a very slow process, due largely to the fact that nature doesn't "know" in advance which features of an animal will be beneficial. A new AI-based algorithm does know, however, allowing it ...

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

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 ...

Harvard researchers created an algorithm that allows a wearable robot to adapt to and assist the arm movements of stroke and Lou Gehrig’s disease patients in real-time. The researchers’ machine ...

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 ...

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 ...

A machine-learning algorithm to study the behavior of proteins within cells and to predict their ability to trigger neurodegenerative diseases such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson's, ...
