Robots could soon be able to autonomously complete search and rescue missions, inspections, complex maintenance operations and various other real-world tasks. To do this, however, they should be able ...

A team led by the University of Oxford has developed a new class of soft robots that operate without electronics, motors, or ...

Robots are developed for a wide variety of uses. These include assembly, welding, monitoring marine life, rescue and recovery and even vacuuming the floor. Because of this, there is a multitude of ...

Researchers have overcome a major challenge in biomimetic robotics by developing a sensor that, assisted by AI, can slide over braille text, accurately reading it at twice human speed. The tech could ...

The robotics sector is rapidly evolving, thanks to remarkable advancements in sensor technology and healthcare applications. As these innovations continue ...

Oxford researchers create soft robots that act, sense and synchronize without electronics using modular air-powered unit ...

Robotic collision sensors are crash protection devices that detect a crash before or during a collision. A collision sensor sends a signal back to the robot’s brain (robot controller) in such ...

We’ve seen the development of a number of technologies that could be used to provide robots with a sense of touch, such as proximity and temperature sensing hexagonal plates and artificial skin ...
