Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have created a system that makes a human-controlled robot more "intelligent," and improves the amount of control that a human user has over it ...

Using arm sensors that can "read" a person's muscle movements, Georgia Institute of Technology researchers have created a control system that makes robots more intelligent. The sensors send ...

A control system helps robots quickly adjust to subtle changes in the way their operators move, which could improve safety in manufacturing settings.

A new combination of a robotic arm and "electronic skin" has created a prosthetic that can sort itself through any obstacle.

Robots are becoming increasingly integrated into everyday environments—from homes and hospitals to factories and farms.

A robot arm wrapped in sensor-laden skin has been given the ability to navigate using a keen sense of touch, a development that allows it to work closely and comfortably alongside humans.

As well, the approach uses a small handful of microphones dispersed across the robotic arm, rather than many visual or pressure sensors more densely coating it.

Details and instructions on how the Kinect sensor Ando Tamino hardware was combined to create the gesture -controlled robotic arm and accompanying servo motors. Watch the demonstration video below ...

Farmers might be able to get help tending and harvesting crops using a new sensing technology from Carnegie Mellon University ...

A research group at Keiō University has developed a soft robotic arm that can adjust the strength of its grip according to what it grasps. Its movements are delicate enough to pick up a potato chip.

Using arm sensors that can “read” a person’s muscle movements, researchers have created a control system that makes robots more intelligent. The sensors send information to the robot ...
