MassRobotics recently hosted the “Robotics in Age & Assistive Tech” event in collaboration with The Grid and Harvard’s Move Lab. Held at the Harvard Science & Engineering Complex, the event brought together a diverse group of stakeholders to discuss the challenges and solutions in the rapidly growing field of robotics and assistive technology. The post Robots making a […]
A German study outlines the benefits of having a diverse team for robotics research. | Source: Adobe Stock The field of robotics is highly interdisciplinary, encompassing mechanical and electrical engineering, materials science, computer science, neuroscience, and biology. If that academic diversity is paired with workforce diversity, it could drive more creativity and innovation, according to […]
University researchers have developed an approach for making robots more reliable by adapting to varying levels of vulnerabilities. | Source: Adobe Stock Researchers from the University of Rochester, Georgia Tech, and the Shenzen Institute of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics for Society have proposed a new approach for protecting robotics against vulnerabilities while keeping overhead costs […]
Dec. 12, 2024 — Quantum calculations of molecular systems often require extraordinary amounts of computing power; these calculations are typically performed on the world’s largest supercomputers to better understand real-world products such as batteries and semiconductors. The post Berkeley Researchers Crack Open ‘AI-at-Scale’ Method for Chemical Science appeared first on HPCwire.
Field robotics is redefining industries with technologies that perform complex tasks in unstructured and often dynamic environments – out of the warehouse, facing the weather, and potentially working alongside the public. The post Enduring the elements: encoder solutions for extreme field robotics appeared first on The Robot Report.
Barcelona Supercomputing Center‘s Innostroke project aims to transform the prevention and monitoring of stroke, one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide, through artificial intelligence. The Innostroke technology has been developed in an interdisciplinary way by the BSC’s Computer Sciences and Life Science departments, with the participation of diverse profiles such as biotechnologists […]
In 2022, the world produced 62 million tonnes of electronic waste, marking an 82% rise from 2010 levels. If this trend persists, global e-waste generation is projected to increase by an additional 32%, potentially reaching 82 million tonnes by 2030. The post The Growing E-Waste Footprint of GenAI appeared first on HPCwire.
Isaac Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics have captivated imaginations for decades, providing a blueprint for ethical AI long before it became a reality. The post The Three Laws of Robotics and the Future appeared first on HPCwire.
Over the last several years, the investment environment has been tough for robotics startups. Capital deployment has fallen and companies have closed as the general downturn in tech investment that started in 2022 hit the resource-intensive robotics particularly hard. We have tracked that decline — and identified green shoots of recovery — in our annual […]
Pipedream Labs Inc. announced the launch of its robotic food-delivery system at a leading quick-service restaurant, or QSR. The system delivers food orders from the kitchen to the customer in under 15 seconds, “transforming fast food into instant food,” it said. The post Pipedream Labs deploys underground robotic delivery system in Texas drive thru appeared […]
