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.

In the first days of my son’s life, during the fall of 2023, he spent much of the time when he wasn’t sleeping or eating engaged in what some cognitive scientists call “motor babbling.” His arms and ...

And, before that, Krieger's Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot, STAR, performed the first autonomous robot surgery on a live animal – a laparoscopic surgery on a pig – in 2022. But it was much more heavily ...

Humanoid robots have come on leaps and bounds in recent times, and much is expected of the advanced machines in the coming ...

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 ...

It takes years of intense study and a steady hand for humans to perform surgery, but robots might have an easier time picking it up with today's AI technology. Researchers at Johns Hopkins University ...

Marc Raibert, the founder of Boston Dynamics, gave the world a menagerie of two- and four-legged machines capable of jaw-dropping parkour, infectious dance routines, and industrious shelf stacking.

A robot, trained for the first time by watching videos of seasoned surgeons, executed the same surgical procedures as skillfully as the human doctors, say researchers. A robot, trained for the first ...
