BOT or NOT? This special series explores the evolving relationship between humans and machines, examining the ways that robots, artificial intelligence and automation are impacting our work and lives.
Teleoperation of robots can be quite challenging, especially for novice users because it forces users to focus on low-level aspects of robot control, rather than higher level goals regarding task ...
An army of more than 4,000 marching doglike robots is a vaguely menacing sight, even in a simulation. But it may point the way for machines to learn new tricks. In the simulation, the machines—called ...
Training humanoid robots to hike could accelerate development of embodied AI for tasks like autonomous search and rescue, ecological monitoring in unexplored places and more, say University of ...
Chipmaker NVidia became a titan in the computer graphics world, then repurposed the same processors to run the deep-learning neural networks that make today’s artificial intelligence possible. It’s ...
Robotics first entered our imaginations, but now it's becoming part of our lives without us even realizing it. Robot drones fly overhead, robot vacuum cleaners are on sale in stores, toy robots ...
