Noninvasive brain tech is transforming how people interact with robotic devices. Instead of relying on muscle movement, this technology allows a person to control a robotic hand by simply thinking ...

The robotic hand can crawl around on its own, grab small objects, and bring them back to the arm. The robotic hand can crawl around on its own, grab small objects, and bring them back to the arm. is a ...

A soft patch on the arm could soon let you steer robots with simple hand movements, even while your whole body is in motion.

The term “robot” conjures up images from myriad science fiction movies, usually of robots trying to destroy humanity. So far, we are safe, at least for the time being. Our present-day robotics ...

If one of the finger modules suffers fatal damage during limit-pushing AI experiments, it can be removed from the base module (which connects to a robot arm) and replaced with a fresh one for minimum ...

The researchers behind the recent work, based in China, decided to implement something similar for an artificial skin that ...

If you accidentally put your hand on a hot object, you'll naturally pull it away fast, before you have to think about it.

A soft robotic hand can pick up nearly a dozen objects and adjust the way it is holding them when they start to slip. Many robotic arms are good at picking up objects, but in-the-moment adjustments ...

Scientists at the University of Texas at Arlington, for example, have built a soft exoskeleton that fastens onto the arm and, in one recent study, reduced how hard participants’ biceps and triceps had ...
