Today a rather cryptic release from 5D Robotics hinted at a growing trend in military research: rather than finding new and innovative ways to strap weight to our human soldiers, how about we just ...

Getting a robot to walk is one thing, getting it to walk without tripping on the first obstacle it encounters is quite another. Engineers at the University of Michigan are developing a set of ...

Machine learning, in which computers learn new skills by looking for patterns in training data, is the basis of most recent advances in artificial intelligence, from voice-recognition systems to ...

Swarm roboticists at Georgia Tech have created new algorithms that allow robots to work together without colliding with one another in the process. While similar algorithms have been created before, ...

Ready for that long-awaited summer vacation? First, you'll need to pack all items required for your trip into a suitcase, making sure everything fits securely without crushing anything fragile.
