Researchers have developed a sustainable innovation pilot project for early detection and prevention of forest fires through drone technology.

Untethered robots suffer from a stamina problem. A possible solution: a circulating liquid - "robot blood" - to store energy and power its applications for sophisticated, long-duration tasks.

Just beyond where conventional scuba divers can go is an area of the ocean that still is largely unexplored. In waters this deep — about 100 to at least 500 feet below the surface — little to no light breaks through.

Domino's Pizza and Nuro are partnering on autonomous pizza delivery using the custom unmanned vehicle known as the R2 later this year.

While our sense of touch gives us a channel to feel the physical world, our eyes help us immediately understand the full picture of these tactile signals. Robots that have been programmed to see or feel can't use these signals quite as interchangeably.

Volvo Trucks' electric, connected and autonomous vehicle Vera will form part of an integrated solution to transport goods from a logistics centre to a port terminal in Gothenburg, Sweden.

Relativity is on a mission to create an entirely reimagined process to iterate and scale rockets quickly and build them in space.

A new tool for predicting a person's movement trajectory may help humans and robots work together in close proximity.

Researchers have developed a collaborative robot system to automatically treat back, neck and head pain caused by soft tissue injury.

The pilot starts this month, and the tests will be run continuously for 10 weeks in a test greenhouse planted with gerberas at the World Horti Center. Target: the golden twin-spot moth.

There's nothing quite like the comforting squeeze of your partner's hand. But a robot's hand? That's perhaps a bit different.

A new study combines satellite images of the sea ice cover, robotic drifters and even seals outfitted with sensors to better understand the phenomenon. The research explores why this hole appears in only some years, and what role it could play in the larger ocean circulation.

The city of Amsterdam envisions a future where fleets of autonomous boats cruise its many canals to transport goods and people, collect trash, or self-assemble into floating stages and bridges.

The world's first 5G-connected robot cafe franchise now has 45 robot-equipped outlets. The second-generation smart robot barista can communicate directly with customers.

IDTechEx will be hosting a free webinar on Thursday 20 June 2019 titled 3D Sensing & Imaging with Laser Diodes: Electronics, Automotive & Industrial.

Wearing a sensor-packed glove while handling a variety of objects, researchers have compiled a massive dataset that enables an AI system to recognize objects through touch alone. The information could be leveraged to help robots identify and manipulate objects, and may aid in prosthetics design.

Researchers presented the most recent results about the new version of the hydraulic quadruped robot which has demonstrated that it is capable of pulling an airplane of 3300kg weight for more than 10 meters. The HyQReal robot is developed to support humans in emergency scenarios.

For environmental monitoring, precision agriculture, infrastructure maintenance and certain security applications, slow and energy efficient can be better than fast and always needing a recharge. That's where "SlothBot" comes in.

Putting their own twist on robots that amble through complicated landscapes, a team has developed a four-legged robot that is not only capable of performing acrobatic tricks and traversing challenging terrain but is also designed with reproducibility in mind.
