DHL Express and EHang have entered into a strategic partnership to jointly launch a fully automated and intelligent smart drone delivery solution to tackle the last-mile delivery challenges in the urban areas of China.

Artificial intelligence could help scientists shed new light on the variety of species living on the ocean floor, according to new research.

Autonomous vehicles from Ford are still a few years away, but one little robot is already showing what's possible.

Underwater vehicles, diving robots, and detectors require their own energy supply to operate for long periods independent of ships. A new, inexpensive system for the direct electrochemical extraction of energy from seawater offers the advantage of also being able to handle short spikes in power demand, while maintaining longer term steady power.

Ultrasound sensors are commonly used in obstacle avoidance in robots and drones. In this article, IDTechEx provide a brief introduction to this sensing technology.

Knightscope Inc announced that facial recognition software utilizing deep learning to detect, analyze and compare faces is now available, in beta format, on its K1 security robot platform to help enhance Workplace Violence Prevention programs.

Researchers have engineered flying robots that behave like hummingbirds, trained by machine learning algorithms based on various techniques the bird uses naturally every day.

Robotic pets that respond to human interaction can benefit the health and wellbeing of older people living in care homes, a study has found.

More ambitious EV objectives drive radically new EV technologies

In this article IDTechEx consider neuromorphic images sensors. These image sensors are event based, meaning that they work based on a change in the scene.
