Jason Corso, who serves as assistant professor of computer science and engineering at University at Buffalo, has received a fund from the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to conduct research on applications of robots to perform demanding operations, including terrain mapping, communication chaining, soldier-aid, search-and-rescue, search-and-destroy and surveillance.
Firemen may have some help from rescue robots in the near future. Rescue robots that are programmed to help evacuate people from a building on fire is what electrical engineers at the Georgia Institute of Technology are shooting for.
Robots perform the robotic mission impossible in this wonderful feat from European researchers. Three different kinds of robots must work together to reach their objective, a book on a high shelf. The exact location of the book is not known to the robots and they must work as a swarm to accomplish the mission.
MesaMax, the rugged workstation from MaxVision is set to become an important component of the Unmanned Aircraft Systems One System Ground Control Station (OSGCS) at AAI.
Goodrich has announced plans of displaying their UAV technologies at AUVSI Unmanned Systems North America, which will be held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center from August 16 to August 19, 2011.
The US Navy is looking to develop robotic submarine drones that can stay at sea for extended periods of time so as to maintain its maritime dominance over the coming decades.
Maryland Thermoform has announced that they will be taking part in the annual AUVSI Unmanned Systems North America 2011 Symposium; this year’s participation marks the fourth consecutive year of their participation.
Swarm robots are making waves at the Georgia Robotics and Intelligent Systems Lab (GRITS). The small Khepera robots have been seen to do a number of amazing activities in the past including flying in perfect formation, playing ping pong and creating a tune on a piano. Now in the lab they can do something completely new.
The Squad Mission Support System (SMSS) from Lockheed Martin would be deployed for the first time in Afghanistan by the U.S Army.
In another case of a robot mimicking nature, there is a new ‘insect-bot’ in China that can walk on water like mosquitoes and water spiders. These water striders provided more than inspiration for the miniature robot, they provided actual design ideas.
