Robot Simulators and Physics Engines

In this post we will take a look at robot simulators and physics engines which should be discussed together. Robot Simulator: Basically a robot simulator is a computer program that …

For some time now, we’ve been hearing about “bistable” devices that can remain in either of two states without expending any energy. A new one, inspired by plant seed pods, …

The pharmaceutical industry is heavily regulated to ensure the safe delivery of medicines and healthcare products. This makes it a particularly challenging industry when we’re talking about shipping and logistics. …

A battery works on the basic principle that electrons tend to move from where they are abundant, or in excess, to where they are scarce. This can happen, if there …

Although we’ve seen a number of different robotic water striders over the years, scientists are still finding clever new aspects of the insects to replicate. Recently, for instance, researchers created …

As a plant manager, you’re facing an industrial landscape that’s changing faster than ever. Some challenges—like fluctuating raw material costs or sudden regulatory shifts—are temporary. These are called VUCA events: …

In this interview series, we’re meeting some of the AAAI/SIGAI Doctoral Consortium participants to find out more about their research. Kate Candon is a PhD student at Yale University interested …

DEEP Robotics develops a range of advanced robotic platforms, each designed for specific real-world applications across industrial, public service, and research sectors. Lite3 is an agile quadruped platform ideal for …

We’ve seen robot dogs run up hills with luggage, and help fight fires. Now, researchers at Switzerland’s ETH Zurich are putting these mechanical mutts through their paces on the badminton …
