Potentially, any soft object could become a robot with the skin slipped around it: a piece of foam tube, a ball, or even a stuffed animal.

Researchers designed a new object-detection algorithm allowing robots to remember the locations of items they 'see.' ...

As the robot lifts an object, the researchers' system gathers signals from the robot's joint encoders, which are sensors that detect the rotational position and speed of its joints during movement.

Robots in warehouses and even around our houses struggle to identify and pick up objects if they are too close together, or if a space is cluttered. This is because robots lack what psychologists ...

Robots' maps of their environments can make existing object-recognition algorithms more accurate.

A Carnegie Mellon spinoff, HawXeye has a library of 52 patents around face detection and object recognition, increasingly important technologies as robots in a variety of fields begin working with ...
