In a crowded fourth-grade classroom in Chicago, a new kind of tutor is shaping how children learn about empathy, conflict, and problem-solving. These robots aren't programmed to act like friendly ...

We’ve been spending so much time thinking about these potential catastrophes that we haven’t braced ourselves for the more immediate danger in our midst: dancing robots. A dancing robot at the hot pot ...

Roboticists have struggled to get humanoid robots to effectively replicate athletic sports skills, such as those needed for tennis. These sports require highly dynamic motion, quick reactions, and ...

As artificial intelligence and robotic systems become increasingly autonomous and complex, their deployment in real-world, human-centered environments ...

The tiny bots follow patterns of light and "artificial space-time," navigating like craft following the curved space around a black hole. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Abstract: In this article, motion estimation and control are investigated in human-following scenarios for a mobile robot with single-line laser radar (SLR) under conditions of leg detection failure.

The College’s Committee on Academic Integrity (CAI) found more students responsible for violating the honor code last fall than in recent years, primarily driven by prohibited use of artificial ...

AI’s concealed labor has repeatedly led us to overestimate the technology. Humanoid robots are entering a similar phase. This story originally appeared in The Algorithm, our weekly newsletter on AI.

Building simulators for robots has been a long term challenge. Traditional engines require manual coding of physics and perfect 3D models. NVIDIA is changing this with DreamDojo, a fully open-source, ...

Abstract: Since the depth sensor provides the joint position data of human arm, it is commonly used for the position mapping of robot manipulator in human-robot interaction. However it is difficult to ...

The ostensible point of robotaxis is that they’re supposed to be safer drivers than humans. Tesla, apparently, didn’t get that memo. According to updated filings from the National Highway Traffic ...
