Robotic development portal launched by InOrbit

InOrbit, a cloud-based robot operations (RobOps) software vendor, has released its Developer Portal. The set of development tools is provided to help roboticists and software developers in building robotics systems. API endpoints, SDKs, and no-code embeds are all available through the Developer Portal. It also contains connections to an increasing number of open-source contributions, such […]

A Bipedal robot that can walk and fly

Leonardo, the robot developed by the California Institute of technology combines the use of legs and thrusters like those of drones. It can walk on two legs and fly at the same time. This opens up new possibilities for robot movements. Leonardo is a bipedal robot, and such robots are generally capable of navigating complicated […]

More secured communication medium for robots

The adoption of blockchain technology as a communication medium for a robot team might provide security and protect against fraud. A blockchain offers a tamper-proof record of all transactions. So, the members of the robot’s team can eventually identify inconsistencies if any in the information trail. Leaders use tokens to communicate moves and add transactions […]

A robot that finds lost things

Researchers at MIT have developed a robotic arm called RFusion that can find lost things. The system consists of a camera and a radio frequency antenna attached to its gripper. It combines signals from the antenna with visual information from the camera to identify and recover an object, even if it is buried behind a […]

Amazon Astro: A robot with no cause?

Amazon has released its long-rumoured home robot “Astro”. The company has been working on this for the past four years. The 2-foot-tall, 20-pound robot features a 10-inch touchscreen, an array of sensors, cameras, and microphones, and can wheel around your home across many directions. Astro underscores Amazon’s approach to robotics, an area in which the […]

Flying drones in a complex environment with artificial intelligence

Researchers at the University of Zurich have devised a novel method for autonomously flying quadrotors across unfamiliar, complicated situations at high speeds using just onboard sensors and computing. The novel method is expected to be beneficial on construction sites or for security applications. Drones are hard to beat when it comes to exploring complicated and […]

Artificial Intelligence v/s Human Intelligence

A lot of controversies and debates are going all around the world questioning the reliability of Artificial Intelligence which is in comparison with human intelligence. Man-made things are always questioned upon because God-made things are full of emotions. While artificial intelligence has got only logic when it comes to providing solutions to problems, human intelligence […]
