From drones and humanoid robots to collaborative “cobots” designed to work alongside humans, sophisticated machines are ...

Imagine a world where robots not only look like humans but also feel like us. Advanced technology has made this possible with the invention of bionic skin. This breakthrough allows robots to ...

'We're not quite at the level where the robotic skin is as good as human skin, but we think it's better than anything else out there at the moment.' Image: Dr. David ...

Walking on two legs: architecture and data must work together. In the past year, both the model end and the "feed end" have been accelerating.

Welcome to this week’s episode of “man-made horrors beyond human comprehension.” A humanoid robot named DeREK had what you might call a “moment” on the floor of a San Francisco robotics lab this week, ...

From left, engineering professor Morteza Lahijanian and graduate student Karan Muvvala watch as a robotic arm completes a task using wooden blocks. Imagine for a moment that you’re in an auto factory.

At UC Berkeley, researchers in Sergey Levine’s Robotic AI and Learning Lab eyed a table where a tower of 39 Jenga blocks stood perfectly stacked. Then a white-and-black robot, its single limb doubled ...

We humans have mastered fire, split the atom, and shot ourselves into space. We've built machines that can outthink us and tools that can cook us lunch or cut open our chests to perform life-saving ...

In 1982, personal computers were beige, boxy, and built for engineers. They were powerful, but uninviting. Few people knew what they were for, or why they might need one. It took more than just better ...

The machines continue to rise. Researchers used artificial intelligence (AI) to train a robotic program to do parts of a gallbladder removal surgery, or a cholecystectomy. The robotic surgeon ...
