A new algorithm may make robots safer by making them more aware of human inattentiveness. In computerized simulations of packaging and assembly lines where humans and robots work together, the ...

Robot teams that can rapidly map unfamiliar buildings, disaster zones, or extraterrestrial terrain have long been a holy ...

A hybrid of probabilistic roadmaps and bidirectional A* search produced shorter paths and faster planning times than Dijkstra ...

Imagine a robot that doesn’t just follow commands but actually plans its actions, adjusts its movements on the go, and learns from feedback—much like a human would. This may sound like a far-fetched ...

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 ...

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 ...

ETH Zurich’s Robotic Systems Lab has showcased its ANYmal-D solving a giant Rubik’s Cube ...

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 ...

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 ...

In computerized simulations of packaging and assembly lines where humans and robots work together, the algorithm developed to account for human carelessness improved safety by about a maximum of 80% ...
