Robot navigation relies on algorithms that optimise the route a machine follows from its starting point to a goal while avoiding obstacles and minimising criteria such as time, energy consumption or ...

Plenty of companies have demoed home robots, but few, if any, have actually been released. The truth is that even the most advanced robots aren't very good at interacting with objects and environments ...

Evolution is a very slow process, due largely to the fact that nature doesn't "know" in advance which features of an animal will be beneficial. A new AI-based algorithm does know, however, allowing it ...

Machine learning algorithms can analyze test data quickly and then learn from that data for the next set of experiments executed by the robots. These machine learning algorithms can quickly identify ...

By moving their own hand and fingers, users wearing a remote-control wristband can manipulate objects in a virtual ...

A new chip developed by MIT researchers could help tiny, low-power UAVs avoid obstacles as they zip around tight corners ...

The Terminator echoes don’t end there, though. The legged metamachines were made by a team of engineers at Northwestern ...

Researchers have designed an algorithm that can intercept a man-in-the-middle (MitM) cyberattack on an unmanned military robot and shut it down in seconds. The algorithm, tested in real time, achieved ...

What just happened? Researchers have developed an algorithm that allows robots to autonomously identify weaknesses in their skills and then systematically practice to improve them. It's akin to giving ...

Scientists hope the AI toy could help older people cope with the effects of stress and loneliness as well as be an ...
