simple triple Delta scooting around the floor, supported by wire training wheels below. It makes a good cat toy, but we’d love to see a bipedal robot with this style of legs.

MIT researchers developed a framework that lets a user correct a robot’s behavior during deployment using simple interactions ...

This arm can gently pick up a shoe, sock, or toy in the robot's path, and then gracefully deposit it in a location of your choosing. For the past 18 months, I have not been coy about how much I ...

Graduate student Felix Yanwei Wang nudges a robotic arm that is manipulating a bowl in a toy kitchen set up in the group’s lab. Using the framework Wang and his collaborators developed, slightly ...

This technique eliminates the need for collecting new data and retraining the robot’s machine-learning model. Instead, it ...

This sampling method enabled the researchers' framework to outperform the other methods they compared it to during simulations and experiments with a real robot arm in a toy kitchen. While their ...
