Learning has been a holy grail in robotics for decades. If these systems are going to thrive in unpredictable environments, they’ll need to do more than just respond to programming — they’ll need to ...

Instead of designing a humanoid robot with AI reasoning and neural networks, you can just teach it yourself. Researchers at Stanford University developed a robot that can imitate what you’re doing in ...

A UK research team recently developed a groundbreaking "robot learning method" to address this issue. Their approach can teach robots up to 1,000 diverse movements in a single day. The method was ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Being a baby is harder than it looks. Born into the world knowing almost nothing, they spend their first few years getting a PhD in navigating a physical environment. Likewise, ...

Atlas, the humanoid robot famous for its parkour and dance routines, has recently begun demonstrating something altogether more subtle but also a lot more significant: It has learned to both walk and ...

Inside the robotics laboratory of the Toyota Research Institute (TRI) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, a group of robots are busy cooking. There is nothing special about that; robotic chefs have been ...

An innovative bimanual robot displays tactile sensitivity close to human-level dexterity using AI to inform its actions. An innovative bimanual robot displays tactile sensitivity close to human-level ...

A robot, trained for the first time by watching videos of seasoned surgeons, executed the same surgical procedures as skillfully as the human doctors. The successful use of imitation learning to train ...
