Take pleasure in right this moment’s movies!
Frequent beetles outfitted with microchip backpacks may someday be used to assist search and rescue crews find survivors inside hours as a substitute of days following disasters comparable to constructing and mine collapses. The College of Queensland’s Dr. Thang Vo-Doan and Analysis Assistant Lachlan Fitzgerald have demonstrated they will remotely information darkling beetles (Zophobas morio) fitted with the packs by way of online game controllers.

Thanks, Thang!
That is our newest work about six-doF hand-based teleoperation for omnidirectional aerial robots, which reveals an intuitive teleoperation system for superior aerial robotic. This work has been offered in 2025 IEEE/RSJ Worldwide Convention on Clever Robots and Methods (IROS 2025).

Thanks, Moju!
Fairly positive we’ve seen this LimX humanoid earlier than, and we’re seeing it once more proper now, however hey, the primary reveal is simply forward!

Thanks, Jinyan!
Gentle robotic arms use tender supplies and constructions to imitate the passive compliance of organic arms that bend and lengthen. Right here, we present how counting on patterning constructions as a substitute of inherent materials properties permits tender robotic arms to stay compliant whereas repeatedly transmitting torque to their setting. We exhibit a tender robotic arm made out of a pair of mechanical metamaterials that act as compliant constant-velocity joints.

ARMstrong Dex is a human-scale dual-arm hydraulic robotic underneath improvement on the Korea Atomic Power Analysis Institute (KAERI) for catastrophe response functions. Designed with dimensions much like an grownup human, it combines human-equivalent attain and dexterity with pressure output that exceeds human bodily capabilities, enabling it to carry out excessive heavy-duty duties in hazardous environments.

This can be a demonstration of in-hand object rotation with Torobo Hand. Torobo Hand is modeled in simulation, and a management coverage is educated inside a number of hours utilizing large-scale parallel reinforcement studying in Isaac Sim. The educated coverage may be executed with none further coaching in each a distinct simulator (MuJoCo) and on the true Torobo Hand.

Since 2005, Ekso Bionics has been creating and manufacturing exoskeleton bionic units that may be strapped on as wearable robots to boost the power, mobility, and endurance of troopers, sufferers, and employees. These robots have quite a lot of functions within the medical, army, industrial, and shopper markets, serving to rehabilitation sufferers stroll once more and employees protect their power.

Sponsored by Raytheon, an RTX enterprise, the 2025 east coast Autonomous Automobile Competitors was held at XElevate in Northern Virginia. Pupil Engineering Groups from 5 universities participated in a two-semester venture to design, develop, combine, and compete two autonomous automobiles that might establish, talk, and ship a medical equipment with the most effective accuracy and time.
