When Max Shepherd was about 10, he saw a robot arm on Lego’s mindstorms.com. It inspired him to build his own. “I built a bunch of moderately decent arms (I was in middle school, come on ...

So let's take a look at what's involved in prepping our CNC robot factory, shall we? Ok, let's get started designing a robotic hand in order to learn some 2D CNC design techniques.

The software giant's BrickBot project shows how robots can learn to autonomously do complex tasks. For now it's with Legos. The next step is in factories.

Columbia Engineering researchers demonstrated a highly dexterous robot hand, one that combines an advanced sense of touch with motor learning algorithms in order to achieve a high level of ...

The AI then trained itself in a computer simulation, learning how the movements of the hand affect the cube and how gravity affects the cube as it’s being manipulated.

Researchers demonstrated a highly dexterous robot hand, one that combines an advanced sense of touch with motor learning algorithms in order to achieve a high level of dexterity. In addition, the ...

Using light-conductive materials, researchers have built a robot hand that can sense shapes and textures. Soft robotics holds promise for better prosthetics or machines with a more "human" touch.

How do you make a robot hand? If you are [Robimek], you start with some plastic spiral tubing, some servo motors, and some fishing line. Oh, and you also need an old glove. The spiral tubing (or ...

Rocket science, with Lego DAVID VOGT'S son loves Lego. As they played together one day, the robotics professor had an idea: could he teach a robot to put the blocks together? "We thought it would ...
