HK airport introduces automatic runway-painting robots in world first
Hong Kong International Airport has introduced automatic painting robots to repaint runway markings that guide aircraft during takeoff and landing, becoming the world's first airport to apply the technology. Two types of robots — a…
Giant robot arms catch massive Starship rocket in dramatic first
Cape Canaveral | SpaceX's Starship made a triumphant return to Earth on Saturday (Sunday AEDT), caught in midair by giant mechanical arms where its journey began 22 hours earlier. It was the grand finale that Elon Musk and his team hoped for…
The Pentagon is testing war robots that can hunt in packs without GPS and find battlefield targets on their own. Humans still call the shots.
The Pentagon's research arm tested how ground drones could be sent out in groups to look for and hunt down targets while keeping a human operator in the loop to make decisions. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, program…
What an England Rugby groundsman and a robot lawn mower have in common
25 years ago, I stood on the front row of “Fortress Twickenham”, at arm's length from rugby legend Jonah Lomu at the 2001 London Sevens tournament. Had you told me I'd finally make it onto the pitch, I would have laughed in your face.
California's AI craze hits the road as Silicon Valley city enlists humanoid robot to woo America
San Jose has recruited an AI-powered humanoid robot to promote the Northern California city at various conventions across the country. The robot ambassador named Sir Kit, has been making the rounds at events and trade shows across the country…
A SoMa startup is building humanoid robots for war
By Zara Stone Tech Culture Reporter On the ground floor of Foundation, the humanoid robotics startup in SoMa, there's a curtained-off room with a light hanging over the entrance, the kind you'd expect to see in a TV studio. When it's blinking red…
Robots recognize the shape of an arena by messaging each other
Humans can create loose maps of environments they are exploring in their minds, using their senses and navigation skills. Many robots, on the other hand, rely on set maps of known environments or new maps produced using data collected by their…
I recently tested the flagship Dreame X50 Ultra Complete robot vacuum and was impressed by its cleaning capabilities - and it's $200 off in this early Black Friday deal
As a Reviews Writer here at Tom's Guide, I spend most of my time testing out the latest robot vacuums. Now, they say never to work with children or animals, but that's where the Dreame X50 Ultra Complete thrives — it makes sure all the mess…
Eric Trump-backed robot soldier startup can't pay staff after founder borrowed $4.6 million from company to buy home
Robot startup Foundation has failed to pay employees since missing its Oct. 30 payroll, angering some workers after its CEO borrowed $4.6 million from the firm last year to buy a luxury home, according to people familiar with the matter. CEO and…
Picturing the outcome may help robots follow instructions
Robots that follow spoken instructions often turn words and camera images into movements. A team in Seoul has built one that also pictures what the table should look like when the job is done, and uses that picture to choose its moves. On four real…
Strange new material pulses in perfect rhythm to make future robots feel more alive
A few musicians can hold a beat together, but an orchestra with no conductor tends to drift apart. Physicists have now built a sheet of material that does the opposite, and ends up making unified waves. Nudge it, and dozens of small motorized cells…
Dung beetles' inner compass could inspire cutting-edge miniature robotics
Insight into how dung beetles navigate in a straight line is helping EU-funded researchers to design nature-inspired technology and to understand how light pollution affects wildlife. When a humble dung beetle arrives at a patch of manure, it forms…
