One of the most significant insights from the study is that roboticists must engage both technically and physically with ...

Social by nature, humans interact in multiple ways—through voice, vision and touch. Reflecting these humanistic qualities, robotic capabilities are improving, and as such, human-robot interaction will ...

Human–robot interaction (HRI) and gesture-based control systems represent a rapidly evolving research field that seeks to bridge the gap between human intuition and robotic precision. This area ...

What sets this approach apart is the training method. Instead of painstakingly programming each movement, the robot learned by watching hundreds of videos recorded from wrist-mounted cameras on da ...

Editor’s Note: This is part of a series called Inside the Lab, which gives audiences a first-hand look at the research laboratories at the University of Chicago and the scholars who are tackling some ...

Imagine for a moment that you’re in an auto factory. A robot and a human are working next to each other on the production line. The robot is busy rapidly assembling car doors while the human runs ...

Robotics combines computer science, engineering, and technology to design, construct, and utilize machines that are programmed to replicate or substitute human actions and decision-making. These ...
