Humanoid and bipedal robot control systems represent a dynamic confluence of robotics, control theory and artificial intelligence. These systems are designed to enable robots to navigate complex ...

Proprietary systems have traditionally dominated the control of three and four-axis wafer handling robots for in-vacuum and in-air wafer applications. As a result, these systems can be limited in ...

Industrial robots are now widely used and are indispensable in car manufacturing and in other fields. Conventional robot hands are suitable for grasping hard objects of fixed form, whereas it is not ...

Researchers have designed a system that makes an off-the-shelf quadruped robot nimble enough to walk a narrow balance beam -- a feat that is likely the first of its kind. Researchers in Carnegie ...

It’s not ready for prime-time, but control systems like this could make for better robots It’s not ready for prime-time, but control systems like this could make for better robots is a senior reporter ...

A control system for deformable robot-fingertips was developed for grasping and releasing objects. Previously developed robot fingertips with high friction texture can stably grasp a paper box, a soft ...

A new study published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience suggests that assistive robots may work best when they share control with their users, striking a middle-ground between full automation and ...

Homogeneous vector and plane, homogeneous transformation, position and orientation transformations, kinematics and inverse kinematic solutions of robot manipulators and mobile robots, Jacobian and ...

If researchers achieve the goals they have set for themselves, apple and grape growers should see the day when their dormant pruning will be done by robots instead of people. Pruning is ...
