Open source language models are crucial to AI innovation. Can open robotics models do the same for physical machines?

[Huaishu Peng] and a group of other researchers have come up with a system that allows them to use virtual reality (VR) to model an object in a space in front of them while a robot simultaneously 3D ...

It seemed inevitable, and now it's here: 3D printing meets robots. With the launch of My Robot Nation, which is taking place today in conjunction with Google's official re-launch of its Chrome Store, ...

Researchers have developed a new model that trains four-legged robots to see more clearly in 3D. The advance enabled a robot to autonomously cross challenging terrain with ease -- including stairs, ...

3D printing is one of the most exciting revolutions to hit manufacturing in decades, but it’s not without its limitations. Perhaps the biggest of these is the fact that, unless you create an unusually ...

Since it launched in 2011, the Robot House at the Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc) has challenged students to create material forms of digital models by orchestrating complex ...

Most robots that use camera sensors are confined to 2D perception. Wanna know how restrictive that is? Grab a racket, close one eye, and try to get through a set of squash. A company called PIXMAP has ...

3D printers are great at creating small objects – and some can even be pressed into doing larger things, such as cars – but a 3D printer able to print a full-sized house would have to be, well, bigger ...
