As the boundaries between robots and collaborative robots (cobots) fade, the need for fast, agile and uncaged robot systems grows rapidly. Today’s cobots typically rely on power- and force-limiting ...

Each robot costs only a single penny to manufacture. The robots could help advance everything from nanotechnology ...

Industrial robots perform myriad tasks including electronic and mechanical assembly, product testing, and material handling. On-board force/torque (F/T) sensors help robots verify part insertion, hold ...

Researchers have overcome a major challenge in biomimetic robotics by developing a sensor that, assisted by AI, can slide over braille text, accurately reading it at twice human speed. The tech could ...

(Yicai) Dec. 23 -- Fourier's recently launched six-axis force sensor for humanoid robots will be priced at just half of what ...

The future is now…and it’s tiny. In A Nutshell Researchers built autonomous robots just 210-340 micrometers wide—roughly the size of a paramecium—that contain an onboard computer, sensors, memory, and ...

The device advances medicine toward a future that might see tiny robots sent into the body to rewire damaged nerves, deliver ...

Researchers have developed an L3 F-TOUCH sensor to enhance tactile capabilities in robots, allowing it to 'feel' objects and adjust its grip accordingly. Researchers from Queen Mary University of ...

A tiny robot so small it can barely be seen can still "sense, think, and act" autonomously, according to the engineers who ...

Melexis unveiled its Tactaxis prototype, a magnetometer with an elastomer and a magnet embedded inside that measures force in three directions. Melexis' Tactaxis integrated tactile sensor is a compact ...

The development of a cutting-edge graphene sensor has led to the creation of an interface that is able to accurately control a robot using thought alone. The development has positive implications not ...

(Nanowerk News) Robotics researchers have already made great strides in developing sensors that can perceive changes in position, pressure, and temperature – all of which are important for ...
