While real dogs still have a major leg up over robots, the machines are catching up. Popular Science previously highlighted a company called Glide that sells a vacuum cleaner shaped mobility aid that uses AI and passive kinetic guidance to help people with impaired vision navigate.

Visitors can interact with newly unveiled robots that will be deployed across the centre's galleries. Read more at straitstimes.com. Read more at straitstimes.com.

Robots that look and move like people are no longer only the domain of science fiction movies like Ex Machina or The Wild Robot. By 2026, several robotics manufacturers had demonstrated very human-like machines — with two arms,

With their ability to shapeshift and manipulate delicate objects, soft robots could work as medical implants, deliver drugs inside the body and help explore dangerous environments. But the squishy machines are often limited by rigid mechanical parts or external systems that provide power or help them move.

KAIST's humanoid robot sprints, moonwalks and kicks a ball on a soccer field, showing smooth repeatable movement powered by custom motors and AI.

In crowded environments, more robots don’t always mean faster results—in fact, too many can bring everything to a standstill. Harvard researchers discovered a surprising fix: adding a bit of randomness to how robots move can actually prevent gridlock and boost efficiency.

Robots that can think and move are no longer confined to factory floors or humanoid prototypes. Researchers have now shrunk fully programmable machines to a size smaller than a grain of sand, packing sensing, computation, and locomotion into specks you ...

Breaking away from conventional robots that perform only predefined functions once fabricated, researchers have developed a next-generation artificial muscle that can change its shape in real time, recover from damage,

Most robot headlines follow a familiar script: a machine masters one narrow trick in a controlled lab, then comes the bold promise that everything is about to change. I usually tune those stories out. We have heard about robots taking over since science ...

Samsung introduced 'Project Luna', a concept robot, at Milan Design Week. Unlike typical devices, this robot features animated movements and sounds, offering a more interactive experience.
