Mobile robot algorithms and coordination have emerged as a central discipline in robotics research, combining computational theory, distributed algorithms, and systems engineering. These algorithms ...

There's no question that robots will play an increasingly central role in our lives in the future, but to get to a stage where they can be genuinely useful there are still a number of challenges to be ...

Plenty of companies have demoed home robots, but few, if any, have actually been released. The truth is that even the most advanced robots aren't very good at interacting with objects and environments ...

Developments in autonomous robotics have the potential to revolutionize manufacturing processes, making them more flexible, customizable, and efficient. But coordinating fleets of autonomous, mobile ...

Evolution is a very slow process, due largely to the fact that nature doesn't "know" in advance which features of an animal will be beneficial. A new AI-based algorithm does know, however, allowing it ...

This diagram visually shows the steps taken by the algorithm to range the orientation of points in a scene. It finds a variety of axis that will fit the point clusters (red, blue, green) where it will ...

Researchers developed a deep learning neural network to aid the design of soft-bodied robots. The algorithm optimizes the arrangement of sensors on the robot, enabling it to complete tasks as ...

Soft robots can be far more flexible than their rigid relatives, but their vast ranges of motion makes it hard to map the location of their body parts. A new algorithm could give them greater control ...

COLOGNE, Germany, Jan. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As the prestigious imm cologne 2026—the global benchmark for home design ...

Inspired by a theoretical model of particles moving around on a chessboard, new robot swarm research shows that, as magnetic interactions increase, dispersed 'dumb robots' can abruptly gather in large ...
