Mobile robot algorithms and coordination have emerged as a central discipline in robotics research, combining computational theory, distributed algorithms, and systems engineering. These algorithms ...

(Nanowerk News) There are some tasks that traditional robots — the rigid and metallic kind — simply aren’t cut out for. Soft-bodied robots, on the other hand, may be able to interact with people more ...

Improvements to a prediction algorithm used in a car manufacturing plant could help robots and humans work better together when sharing the same floor space, whilst maintaining efficiency.

In 2018, researchers at MIT and the auto manufacturer BMW were testing ways in which humans and robots might work in close proximity to assemble car parts. In a replica of a factory floor setting, the ...

The new algorithm could help robots make safer, smarter decisions around humans, even amidst the greatest uncertainties.

Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed. An algorithm can help bots adapt to injury through trial and error An algorithm ...

The robots may at times have to drop the objects they were holding and pick them up again, especially if the algorithm did not have time to calculate an optimal solution.

Google algorithm lets robots teach themselves to walk It's a milestone in making robots more useful.

A new tool for predicting a person's movement trajectory may help humans and robots work together in close proximity. In 2018, researchers at MIT and the auto manufacturer BMW were testing ways in ...

A team of researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology has developed an algorithm that teaches robots how to fall, allowing them to trip up with a little more grace, and hopefully cause ...

Artificial Intelligence is at a stage where whole articles can not be written by robot. In the near future you may be reading news written by an algorithm!
