Amazon has more than 100,000 robots in its warehouses and, of course, has to make sure that the machines work well with human employees. The company's latest solution, which ensures that human-human relationships work smoothly, is called the "Robotic Tech Vest" – a kit that warehouse workers can wear to make them visible to nearby machines. As reported by TechCrunch …

This undated photo, provided by researchers in January 2019, shows the OroBOT, which is based on an Orobates Pabsti fossil. Scientists used a nearly 300 million year old skeleton and preserved ancient footprints to create the moving robotic model of prehistoric life. (John Nyakatura / Humboldt University on AP) Scientists now have an idea of ​​how an ancient creature is …

Stanford engineers have developed an electronic glove that contains sensors that might someday give the dexterity of people whom people take for granted. Courtesy of the Bao Lab Stanford researchers developed the skin-like touch sensors that allow this robotic hand to apply just the right pressure to lift and move a ping-pong ball, without crushing him. In an article dated …

BOSTON: Stanford scientists have developed an electronic glove that contains sensors that could someday teach robotic hands the human sense of touch and dexterity. In a study published in the journal Science Robotics, researchers have shown that the sensors work well enough for a robotic hand to touch a delicate berry and handle a ping-pong ball without squeezing it. "This …

Last week, the Russian space agency Roscosmos announced ambitious plans to create a long-term base on the moon that would land the country on the lunar surface over the next two decades. Well, Roscosmos administrator Dimitry Rogozin has said that the base is run by a technological system that sounds like it has been lifted directly from a sci-fi movie. …

Soon the days of parcel theft will be behind us. For people living in the British city of Milton Keynes, this day is today. This is thanks to the autonomous robot startup Starship Technologies . When deploying Starship on-demand packages, you must first install the app to get a shipping address that you can get to the address of your …

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a new method to make tiny robots that are no larger than a single cell. The microscopic devices that the team calls "syncells" – short for synthetic cells – might, according to the researchers, should be able to monitor the conditions in an oil or gas pipeline to study diseases …

Asteroid last weekend. The robots took small jumps, making it the first time it has ever been asteroid. The two machines, called rovers, landed on the asteroid Ryugu on September 21. The Japan Space Exploration Agency says they were lowered to the surface by an unmanned spacecraft called the Hayabusa2. Asteroids are small, rocky objects orbiting around the sun. They …
