It's an epic story of almost Hollywoodesque proportions: a crippled aerospace engineer, unable to work, fighting against adversity, and while on the edge of financial destitution, decides to build his ...

Traditionally, robot arms have been controlled either by joysticks, buttons, or very carefully programmed routines. However, for [Narongporn Laosrisin’s] homebrew build, they decided to go with ...

Elon Musk’s brain implant company, Neuralink, announced on Tuesday that it is launching a study to test its implant for a new use: allowing a person to control a robotic arm using just their thoughts.

Elon Musk’s brain-computer interface (BCI) company is entering its next phase of experiments: seeing if patients can move a robotic arm using their minds. In a statement posted on X-formerly Twitter — ...

Two researchers at UC Berkeley and ETH Zurich have harnessed the power of OpenAI’s GPT-4o large language model to teach cheap robot arms to clean up spills. It’s a clever demonstration of how AI ...

A Neuralink brain chip patient is now controlling a robot arm with his mind. On Monday, Nick Wray posted a video of himself demonstrating the capability by directing the robot arm to pick up a cup. In ...

Scientists at University of California San Francisco (UCSF) have published in Cell a new study that demonstrates a brain-computer interface (BCI) powered by artificial intelligence (AI) machine ...

Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, have enabled a paralysed man to regularly control a robotic arm using signals from his brain, transmitted via a computer. He was able to ...

Extreme cold is merciless on machinery. Fluids thicken to useless goo. Rubber seals stiffen and crack. The problems pile up as the temperature falls. Metal becomes brittle, and wires contract.

University of Nebraska engineer Sean Crimmins loads the robotic arm into its case. A surgeon on Earth will remotely guide the robot through a surgical simulation while it is on the International Space ...
