Humanoid robots have been promised for decades, but most still look and move like machines. Ameca changes that, with a face ...

Over the past decades, roboticists have introduced a wide range of systems that can move in various complex environments, including different terrains, on the ground, in the air, and even in water. To ...

A robot observes its reflection in a mirror, learning its own morphology and kinematics for autonomous self-simulation. The process highlights the intersection of vision-based learning and robotics, ...

A soft electroactive gel enables untethered robots to deform, grip, and move using only external electric fields, eliminating the need for internal wiring or circuitry. (Nanowerk Spotlight) The ...
