During RoboGames, the world's largest robotic completion held in Pleasanton CA on April 28-29, a Sierra College Robotics Club student team competed with an Autonomous Firefighter robot and won second place. At this same event, another team representing the Sierra College Robotics Club team competed with a 120-pound combat robot.
Inspired by the potential of origami—commonly known as paper folding—Worcester Polytechnic Institute professor Cagdas Onal is developing robotic technology that could one day rescue people from disaster areas or make everyday tasks easier for people with physical challenges.
The rising demand for AI-based solutions and platforms, the need for more safety measures at construction sites, and the capability of AI in construction solutions and services for reducing the production costs are expected to drive the growth of the AI in construction market.
Scientists have developed a magnetic control system to control miniature DNA-based robots to move on demand, and considerably faster than has been possible in recent times.
"Who is Bram Stoker?" Those three words demonstrated the amazing potential of artificial intelligence. It was the answer to a final question in a particularly memorable 2011 episode of Jeopardy!. The three competitors were former champions Brad Rutter and Ken Jennings, and Watson, a super computer developed by IBM. By answering the final question correctly, Watson became the first computer to beat a human on the famous quiz show.
A new technique developed by MIT physicists could someday provide a way to custom-design multilayered nanoparticles with desired properties, potentially for use in displays, cloaking systems, or biomedical devices. It may also help physicists tackle a variety of thorny research problems, in ways that could in some cases be orders of magnitude faster than existing methods.
Engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed tiny ultrasound-powered robots that can swim through blood, removing harmful bacteria along with the toxins they produce.
A team of scientists from Stanford and Seoul National University have built an artificial sensory nerve system that can identify letters in the Braille alphabet and trigger the twitch reflex in a cockroach.
For the first time in the world, scientists from the Étienne Jules Marey Institute of Movement Sciences (CNRS/Aix-Marseille Université) have taken cues from birds to develop an aerial robot with the ability to change its profile during flight. It can reorient its arms, which are fitted with propellers that enable it to fly similar to a helicopter, to reduce its wingspan and navigate through cramped spaces.
Hypertherm, a U.S. based manufacturer of industrial cutting systems and software, is launching Robotmaster V7, a revolutionary task-based robot programming platform built from scratch on a completely new architecture, today.
Many people consider household chores to be an unpleasant, unavoidable part of life that is often postponed or performed with little care. Imagine a robot assistant that could assist in relieving this burden!
VIA Technologies, Inc., today showcased its family of high-performance Edge AI systems for the Automotive, Enterprise IoT, and Smart City segments at its global headquarters and highlighted its core facial and object recognition, 360-degree surround view, and ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) technology platforms that are accelerating the development and deployment of groundbreaking real-world applications by customers in world markets.
Nuance Communications, Inc., the pioneer and leader in conversational AI innovations, today announced it has collaborated with Daimler AG to develop and power the Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) multimedia system.
