Robots are starting to flinch. New generations of electronic skin can register heat, pressure and even damaging force, then ...

Robots are starting to gain something that looks a lot like a sense of touch, and in some cases even a crude version of pain.

Robot skin that senses touch and pain — and triggers instant reflexes — makes robots more like humans. It probably also makes ...

Robots are about to experience the world in a way we never thought possible. Scientists in Hong Kong have developed a new ...

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 ...

Inexpensive silicon rubber composites used to make robotic skin host an insulating layer which prevents direct electrical contact, making accurate and repeatable measurements virtually impossible. Low ...

Imagine a world where robots can feel, just like you and me. It’s not a scene from a sci-fi movie, but the exciting reality that Meta, the tech giant formerly known as Facebook, is working tirelessly ...

Using a 3D-printed material sensitive to electric fields, researchers have created a novel sensor that can accurately recognize and distinguish objects up to 10 centimeters – about four inches – away ...

Meta made several major announcements for robotics and embodied AI systems this week. This includes releasing benchmarks and artifacts for better understanding and interacting with the physical world.

Hesai makes advanced lidar sensors, using solid-state technology to guide autonomous vehicles and humanoid robots.

Researchers overcome a long-time challenge of flexible touch sensors, demonstrating high repeatability after careful contact preparation Researchers warn of a native insulation layer that covers ...
