A new robotic system can learn directly from human interaction videos and generalize the information at the task being completed. This makes the robot well suited to learn household chores effectively and efficiently.
The benefits of animal therapy for memory and mental health are well documented. Some agencies are using realistic robotic pets as a therapeutic tool for memory care in older adults. Now, researchers have developed a new protocol for the use of robotic animals to aid in memory care.
A new robotics system can create a kinematic model of itself and use the model to plan motion, reach goals, and avoid obstacles in a variety of situations.
A new robotic system can identify volatile organic compounds associated with diseases by analyzing bodily emissions.
With the help of brain-machine interface technology and robotic arms, a paralyzed man was able to feed himself for the first time in thirty years.
Researchers have developed a virtual robotic arm that can be controlled by a person's feet in a virtual environment to provide an "extra" limb. After training, users reported feeling the virtual limb felt as though it was part of their physical body.
Researchers have developed a controllable robotic finger covered with living skin tissue that has the ability to heal itself.
Findings challenge the long-standing view that behaving unpredictably helps animals survive when they encounter predators.
Robotic surgery for bladder removal decreased recovery time and hospital stay duration for patients, researchers report.
Combining AI and robotics technology, researchers have identified new cellular characteristics of Parkinson's disease in skin cell samples from patients.
Researchers have developed a new, fully automated prosthetic arm that learns during normal use and adapts to varying conditions.
An innovative new clinical trial seeks to explore how the brain adapts to bionic arms in children born without limbs. The study aims to improve prosthetics mastery in children.
