The quest for agile quadrupedal robots is limited by handcrafted reward design in reinforcement learning. While animal motion capture provides 3D references, its cost prohibits scaling. Video learning ...

The work in this article was inspired by human perception. Controlling robots with a video-game controller, people can learn to pick and place objects within minutes 29. The only sensors we require ...

FANUC America will showcase advanced robotics, collaborative automation and artificial intelligence (AI)‑enabled ...

CORVALLIS, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, OptiTrack, the worldwide leader in 3D tracking systems, is bringing high-precision motion tracking outside with the release of the Versa X line of motion ...

CORVALLIS, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OptiTrack, the global leader in precision motion capture technology, today announced that its flagship PrimeX 120 camera system powered the high-speed, high-G ...

Researchers have demonstrated miniature soft hydraulic actuators that can be used to control the deformation and motion of soft robots that are less than a millimeter thick. The researchers have also ...

Several research groups across the United States and Europe have demonstrated that 3D-printed artificial muscles can replicate biological movements such as contracting, twisting, and lifting, bringing ...

Güdel has added two degrees of freedom to heavy-duty robotic grinding applications through its TMV and TMF systems.

Güdel adds TMV vertical lift and TMF floor travel so one robot can grind huge parts with consistent pressure, speed and repeatability.

The day is coming when you may walk past a robot and have no idea it was a robot. Over years of engineering, we've given robots skeletons, brains, senses, and even a nervous system. Muscles have ...
