A new soft sensing system could help humanoid robots move their hands with far greater precision in delicate, human-like ...

Roboticists from the University of Tokyo have taken a tiny step toward creating the Terminator. They’ve built an articulated robot finger that’s seamlessly covered in living human skin. There are many ...

Robots may be coming for your chores someday, but at the University of Texas at Austin they are starting with something far ...

Engineers have created an ultrasound wristband that uses AI to track hand movements in real time. By imaging wrist tendons like "puppet strings," the wearable allows users to wirelessly control robots ...

When robots work in unstructured environments, the physical impact of bumps and collisions can be inevitable. The impact can damage the robots’ hardware systems. This is often the case for rigid multi ...

WTF?! Japanese scientists who have presumably never seen any of the Terminator movies have found a way to wrap living skin around a robotic finger to make it feel worryingly real and "slightly sweaty, ...

Researchers developed a soft optical bending sensor that enables humanoid robotic hands to perceive finger posture across multiple axes during dexterous tasks.
