A new category of sensing technology transforms mobile robot vision from 2D to 3D, improves safety performance and provides 50-80% cost savings compared to traditional, LiDAR-based systems and sensor ...

The researchers behind the recent work, based in China, decided to implement something similar for an artificial skin that ...

Sonair’s 3D ultrasonic sensor uses acoustic detection and ranging (ADAR) to enable 360° obstacle detection up to 5 meters. Each ADAR sensor offers a 180×180° field of view, allowing autonomous mobile ...

Researchers have developed an L3 F-TOUCH sensor to enhance tactile capabilities in robots, allowing it to 'feel' objects and adjust its grip accordingly. Researchers from Queen Mary University of ...

Industrial robots perform myriad tasks including electronic and mechanical assembly, product testing, and material handling. On-board force/torque (F/T) sensors help robots verify part insertion, hold ...

If you've ever moved into a new home, you know the challenge of packing a moving truck—it's like solving a giant, three-dimensional puzzle. Everything needs to fit just right, and nothing can be left ...

Xiaomi announced the original CyberDog two years ago, in 2021. The company is now back with the follow-up, named the Xiaomi CyberDog 2, which definitely looks less creepy. This bio-inspired robot dog ...
