Most robot headlines follow a familiar script: a machine masters one narrow trick in a controlled lab, then comes the bold promise that everything is about to change. I usually tune those stories out.

Locomotion, end-effectors, appearance - and how they relate to a robot’s purpose. We focus on design elements: locomotion, end-effectors, appearance - and how they relate to a robot’s purpose.

Traditional safety protocols weren’t designed for self-improving systems, which raises important questions about validation, ...

If you are interested in learning more about training robots using machine learning techniques and technologies you might be interested in a new Arduino project to ascertain whether a basic robot ...

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 ...

Robot learning and language acquisition represent an interdisciplinary endeavour combining robotics, artificial intelligence and cognitive science. This field studies how autonomous systems can ...
