Robots are super interesting, but you probably shouldn’t start learning about them with a full-sized industrial SCARA arm or anything. Better to learn with something smaller and simpler to understand.

Reinforcement learning (RL) is transforming the way robots interact with the world. Unlike traditional programming or supervised learning, which depend on pre-defined ...

Intrinsic motivation, a concept drawn from behavioural science, has gained significant traction in robotic research as a means to stimulate exploratory behaviour in the absence of explicit external ...

Once upon a time, machine learning was an arcane field, the preserve of a precious few researchers holed up in grand academic institutions. Progress was slow, and hard won. Today, however, just about ...

A whole-body control foundation model could help launch humanoid robots toward general-purpose capability, says Agility ...

Researchers are using generative AI and other techniques to teach robots new skills—including tasks they could perform in homes. Silent. Rigid. Clumsy. Henry and Jane Evans are used to awkward ...

Cyclic motion is a core requirement in many scenarios, such as repetitive arm exercises during rehabilitation training, rhythmic cooperation of machines on assembly lines, and stable walking of robots ...

SigmaKit uses imitation learning to eliminate the burdensome process of system configuration for manufacturers, CarbonSix said.

Robotics and deep learning are progressively reshaping agricultural automation by introducing precision, efficiency and adaptability to traditional farming practices. Advanced robotic systems, ...
