If you grew up playing with LOGO on an old 8-bit computer, you’re probably familiar with the concept of a drawbot. It’s a simple robot that drags a pen around to draw on paper. [Tim] decided to build ...

A new category of sensing technology transforms mobile robot vision from 2D to 3D, improves safety performance and provides 50-80% cost savings compared to traditional, LiDAR-based systems and sensor ...

Some robots can swim. Others can kick, fetch, jump or fly. But the latest development in the field of robotics lets machines carry out an activity that is somewhat less athletic: plugging in a USB ...

As more robots operate near people, they must be built so they don’t cause any injuries—and that requires all of the computational and sensor technology we can muster. The first mobile robots often ...

As one of the most important components in robots, sensors can be categorized into proprioceptive sensors and exteroceptive sensors. Proprioceptive sensors measure internal data such as joint speed, ...
