By 2035, robots won’t just be hard-wired computer parts under the hood. They’ll be looking curiously at the vehicle, working ...

Its light weight means it has a low impact on robot payload, while its compact size adds minimal distance from the tool center point (TCP) to the robot, which minimizes stress on robot joints. The ...

From beige boxes to cultural icons, the history of computers shows what happens when design meets emerging tech. Robotics is ...

“The fact of the matter is, [the robot] is a tool. As a tool, these capabilities have existed for years and years,” says Red Whittaker, a robotics professor at Carnegie Mellon University.

The new tools will allow two-armed Dextre to perform satellite refueling and repairs designed to be done by humans on Earth, not robots in space.

In lab tests, not only was the robot able to walk the ~3-meter (9.8-ft) length of a 6-cm (2.4-in)-wide wooden beam, but it also withstood attempts to kick it over. When dropped upside-down from a ...
