Take pleasure in as we speak’s movies!
Frequent beetles outfitted with microchip backpacks might sooner or later be used to assist search and rescue crews find survivors inside hours as an alternative of days following disasters akin 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 through online game controllers.

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

Thanks, mine!
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 comfortable supplies and buildings to imitate the passive compliance of organic arms that bend and lengthen. Right here, we present how counting on patterning buildings as an alternative of inherent materials properties permits comfortable robotic arms to stay compliant whereas constantly transmitting torque to their setting. We exhibit a comfortable robotic arm comprised 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 Vitality Analysis Institute (KAERI) for catastrophe response functions. Designed with dimensions much like an grownup human, it combines human-equivalent attain and dexterity with power output that exceeds human bodily capabilities, enabling it to carry out excessive heavy-duty duties in hazardous environments.

It is 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 will be executed with none extra coaching in each a unique simulator (MuJoCo) and on the actual Torobo Hand.

Since 2005, Ekso Bionics has been growing and manufacturing exoskeleton bionic gadgets that may be strapped on as wearable robots to reinforce the power, mobility, and endurance of troopers, sufferers, and staff. These robots have a wide range of functions within the medical, navy, industrial, and shopper markets, serving to rehabilitation sufferers stroll once more and staff protect their power.

Sponsored by Raytheon, an RTX enterprise, the 2025 east coast Autonomous Automobile Competitors was held at XElevate in Northern Virginia. Scholar 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.
