Karlsruhe, Germany (SPX) Jun 30, 2022 - Locally available, emission-free and baseload-capable: geothermal energy is an essential component of the energy transition. With GeoLaB, a new and unique underground research infrastructure, the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) and the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ) are looking to expedite research and prepare the technology for broad application. The facility is to be built in the Black Forest or the Odenwald range... Читать дальше...

Boston MA (SPX) Jun 29, 2022 - For humans, finding a lost wallet buried under a pile of items is pretty straightforward - we simply remove things from the pile until we find the wallet. But for a robot, this task involves complex reasoning about the pile and objects in it, which presents a steep challenge.

MIT researchers previously demonstrated a robotic arm that combines visual information and radio frequency (RF) signals to find hidden objects that were tagged with RFID tags (which reflect signals sent by an antenna). Читать дальше...

Ann Arbor, MI (SPX) Jun 30, 2022 - In a step toward robots that can learn on the fly like humans do, a new approach expands training data sets for robots that work with soft objects like ropes and fabrics, or in cluttered environments.

Developed by robotics researchers at the University of Michigan, it could cut learning time for new materials and environments down to a few hours rather than a week or two.

San Jose CA (SPX) Jun 30, 2022 - Velodyne Lidar, Inc. (Nasdaq: VLDR, VLDRW) has announced a multi-year agreement for its lidar sensors with Boston Dynamics, the global leader in mobile robotics. Boston Dynamics selected Velodyne's sensors to provide perception and navigation capabilities for its highly mobile robots, which are capable of tackling the toughest robotics challenges.

Pittsburgh PA (SPX) Jun 30, 2022 - Automation enhances industry, but it's harmful to the mental health of its human co-workers.

A University of Pittsburgh study suggests that while American workers who work alongside industrial robots are less likely to suffer physical injury, they are more likely to suffer from adverse mental health effects - and even more likely to abuse drugs or alcohol.

Houston TX (SPX) Jun 30, 2022 - When 66-year-old Oswald Reedus had a stroke in 2014, he became one of 795,000 people in the United States who annually suffer the same fate. This year he also became the first stroke patient in the world to use a robotic arm controlled by his brainwaves - at home - to recover the use of a limb.

Reedus was lucky to live in Houston and have access to this futuristic-looking, portable device - an invention of University of Houston engineering professor Jose Luis Contreras-Vidal... Читать дальше...

Houston TX (SPX) Jun 29, 2022 - Just like us, robots can't see through walls. Sometimes they need a little help to get where they're going. Engineers at Rice University have developed a method that allows humans to help robots "see" their environments and carry out tasks. The strategy called Bayesian Learning IN the Dark - BLIND, for short - is a novel solution to the long-standing problem of motion planning for robots that work in environments where not everything is clearly visible all the time.

Pasadena CA (JPL) Jun 29, 2022 - Someday, a swarm of cellphone-size robots could whisk through the water beneath the miles-thick icy shell of Jupiter's moon Europa or Saturn's moon Enceladus, looking for signs of alien life. Packed inside a narrow ice-melting probe that would tunnel through the frozen crust, the tiny robots would be released underwater, swimming far from their mothercraft to take the measure of a new world.

That's the vision of Ethan Schaler, a robotics mechanical engineer at... Читать дальше...
