Complex environments require soft robots to adapt to minimal spaces without sacrificing the ability to complete dexterous tasks.
Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Robotic eyes unconstrained by human perception
Forcing robots to see through a human’s eyes is limiting. Smart robotic eyes that can think for themselves could be the answer.
How do you make an electronic nose smart?
A smart electronic nose that mimics the human nose with its millions of receptor cells and ability to differentiate smells.
Continual learning, just like humans
An in-memory computing prototype provides a promising solution for edge computing systems to implement continual learning.
Image fraud gets a boost from AI
Deepfakes in the biomedical literature are coming, if they aren’t here already.
Gentle tapping with magnetic needles for less invasive surgeries
A miniaturized, tetherless needle offers a safe means of performing surgery, treating cancer, and performing diagnostic tests.
People prefer voice companions to human-like robots
Study participants were more comfortable with voice-based AI companions compared to robots that act and look like humans.
Robots in the workforce: How can we compete?
Researchers calculate the automation risk of almost 1000 existing occupations and provide alternatives based on skill set.
Learning from a robotic octopus swimmer
A robotic swimmer that mimics the movement of octopuses could help researchers better monitor aquatic environments remotely and in real time.
Color-changing microrobots help monitor the environment
Using stimuli-responsive hydrogels with regularly arranged colloidal particles, researchers create color-changing microrobots that can freely explore and gather information.
