Researchers have proposed new design for sensors that allow for teleoperated control of robotic and prosthetic systems. As seen in the demonstration, a robotic hand powered by the team’s sensors can ...

Schematic showing the materials used in the sensor and the sensing array on a robotic manipulator. Figure from Multiscale-structured miniaturized 3D force sensors. Reproduced under a CC BY 4.0 licence ...

Abstract: A system is presented that shares control between ultrasonic sensors, a tele-operator and a mobile robot. The mobile robot can be directed by the tele-operator, or by ultrasonic sensors, or ...

As robots increasingly enter human spaces, robotics companies will need to think about safety differently than they did when robots were largely siloed from their human counterparts. Sonair thinks its ...

“The sense of touch is a key enabler for creating human-level dexterity in robots and critical for physical AI to achieve its full potential. Our tactile sensors enable reliable and confident fine ...

DRESDEN, Germany—Engineers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems (IPMS) here have developed a new system that combines sensor technology, data acquisition and AI-based data evaluation ...

Add a description, image, and links to the ultrasonic-distance-sensors topic page so that developers can more easily learn about it.

Plastics have replaced the materials used previously in many application areas. Above all, fibre-composite materials are very well suited to producing components with precisely defined properties.

The Vision 60 is an all-weather ground drone that employs a proprietary blind-mode control methodology that allows for movement over rough terrain. It employs cameras and 3D imaging, but the robot can ...

OpenAI's ChatGPT isn't just good at generating coherent text responses to natural language prompts -- it can also play a role in human-to-robot interactions and use sensor feedback to write code for ...
