Science Beyond Siri: A Team of Educators and Computer Scientists Take on AI
The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and a branch of AI called machine learning, which focuses on the use of data and algorithms to imitate the way that humans learn, is rapidly changing the way data-intensive scientific discovery is being done. The post Science...
Keys to developing autonomous vehicle software
APEX.AI co-founder Dejan Pangercic discusses software development for autonomous vehicles. The post Keys to developing autonomous vehicle software appeared first on Robotics Business Review.
New AI Platform Addresses Challenge of Food Deserts in Low-Income Communities
An innovative food and nutrition project is uniquely combining artificial intelligence (AI) and social enterprise business models to help address the challenge of food deserts in the U.S. These are places across the country where supermarkets are more than one mile...
Researchers taught a quadruped to use its legs for manipulation
Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and UC Berkeley want to give quadrupeds more capabilities similar to their biological counterparts. Just like real dogs can use their front legs for things other than walking and running, like digging and other...
A Robust Quantum Memory That Stores Information in a Trapped-Ion Quantum Network
Researchers at the University of Oxford have recently created a quantum memory within a trapped-ion quantum network node. Their unique memory design, introduced in a paper in Physical Review Letters, has been found to be extremely robust, meaning that it could store...
How Amazon Astro moves through its environment
Amazon recently detailed how Astro, the company’s multi-purpose home robot, can navigate through its environment with limited onboard computational capabilities. Astro’s sensor field of view and onboard computational capabilities aren’t nearly as powerful as other...
MIT researchers create algorithm to stop drones from colliding midair
A research team from MIT created a trajectory-planning system called Robust MADER that can allow drones working together in the same airspace to pick safe paths forward without crashing into each other. The algorithm is an updated version of MADER, a 2020 project that...
Using Quantum Fluctuations to Generate Random Numbers Faster
A team of physicists from Ghent University—Interuniversity Microelectronics Center, Technical University of Denmark and Politecnico & Università di Bari, reports that it is possible to use quantum fluctuations to generate random numbers faster than standard...
How to Overcome Noise in Quantum Computations
Researchers Ludovico Lami (QuSoft and IoP, University of Amsterdam) and Mark M. Wilde (Cornell) have made significant progress in quantum computing by deriving a formula that predicts the effects of environmental noise. This is crucial for designing and building...
Will Fluxonium Qubits Join the Crowded Race for Effective Qubits?
Currently there are many qubit types under development. One that’s received relatively little notice is the fluxonium qubit. It’s a less well-studied cousin of the transmon superconducting qubit being developed by IBM, Google, Rigetti and others. The post Will...
Computer Simulations Unveil Promising Mechanisms for Future Oral Drug Delivery Solutions
There is a need for new drugs. For example, many of the antibiotics that we have been using for a long time are becoming less effective. Chemists and pharmaceutical scientists are frantically searching for new active substances, especially those that can penetrate...
Over 150,000 picking robots to be installed by 2030
Interact Analysis expects annual shipments will jump from less than 2,000 in 2022, to just above 50,000 by the end of the decade. The post Over 150,000 picking robots to be installed by 2030 appeared first on Robotics Business Review.
