The new design could be adapted to sort warehouse products, unload heavy cargo, or help lift patients out of bed.

Cornell engineers have developed a revolutionary new robot gripper that can teach itself to pick up all sorts of oddly shaped objects, an ability most autonomous robots lack. The universal jamming ...

Applied Robotics Inc.(www.arobotics.com), a manufacturer of end-of-arm tooling and connectivity products for robots, has introduced a new, intelligent, closedloop ...

A flexible foam sensor built from silver selenide detects temperature and pressure simultaneously, enabling a robotic gripper ...

UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering students have developed a new robot hand that picks fruit and changes light bulbs using just measuring tape as “fingers.” Called “GRIP-tape,” a backronym for ...

It’s a game a lot of us played as children—and maybe even later in life: unspooling measuring tape to see how far it would extend before bending. But to engineers at the University of California San ...

[Tazer] built a small desktop-sized robotic arm, and it was more or less functional. However, he wanted to improve its ability to pick things up, and attaching a pneumatic gripper seemed like the ...

Researchers at the Bristol Robotics Laboratory have unveiled a innovative adaptive robot suction mechanism that draws inspiration from the biological structures of octopus suckers. This robot octopus ...

In the world of robotics, one important factor to be considered is the size of the components to be used especially when aiming to make a smaller output. Adding in the fundamental and essential ...
