MIT engineers have come up with a general code tool to optimise robot learning. They're calling it an "automated recipe for success," one that can be applied to "virtually any autonomous robotic ...

In its decades-long quest to mimic life, robotics has never had much trouble duplicating its brute force. Machines have long been capable of moving vehicles, assembling chips, and reaching the far ...

MIT engineers have built a fast, lightweight robotic arm that can play table tennis like a pro. Designed for high-speed accuracy, the robot sits at one end of a ping pong table and uses a standard ...

The MIT engineers are at it again — and this time, they’ve created a robotic cheetah that knows how to leap. “In those settings, you need to use vision in order to avoid failure,” Gabriel Margolis, a ...

This week's report shows how robotics is evolving beyond isolated cells into integrated, intelligent manufacturing systems.
