Quantum Corporation today announces its role in accelerating all-terrain autonomous vehicle research at the Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems (CAVS) at Mississippi State University (MSU), one of the premier university automotive research centers in the world. CAVS...

NTT Corporation (NTT, President & CEO: Jun Sawada, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo) in cooperation with the University of Tokyo (President: Teruo Fujii, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo) and RIKEN (President: Hiroshi Matsumoto, Wako-shi, Saitama) has developed an optical fiber-coupled quantum...

The Waymo Driver has been at work bringing on San Francisco streets providing taxi services, and trucking on highways between Dallas and Houston for over a month now. Where it’s a car or a Waymo’s semi-truck Waymo Via, the Waymo Driver is up to the task. The post How...

What does a quantum computer have in common with a top draft pick in sports? Both have attracted lots of attention from talent scouts. Quantum computers, experimental machines that can perform some tasks faster than supercomputers, are constantly evaluated, much like...

Stanford researchers set out to make a robotic hand that can do it all, from picking up delicate objects like raw eggs and tomatoes, to handling large objects like basketballs. The post Stanford researchers create gecko inspired robotic hand appeared first on The...

The robot milks scorpions by holding down the tail of the animal and providing an electric current to produce droplets of venom. The venom is collected in an Eppendorf tube below the scorpion. The post Researchers receive patent for scorpion venom extraction robot...

In a new work published in Nature Electronics, researchers in Finland have developed a circuit that produces the high-quality microwave signals required to control quantum computers while operating at temperatures near absolute zero. This is a key step towards moving...

Robot behaviors are often built as computational graphs, with data flowing from sensors to compute technologies, all the way down to actuators and back. To obtain additional performance, robotics compute platforms must map these graph-like structures efficiently to...

Researchers in quantum technology at Chalmers University of Technology have succeeded in developing a technique to control quantum states of light in a three-dimensional cavity. In addition to creating previously known states, the researchers are the first ever to...

For decades, researchers have worked toward scalable data storage in DNA’s four nucleotides (A, T, G and C). The technology, once mastered, would yield millions of times greater efficiency, but impediments in reliability and read/write speeds have stymied the arrival...

Scientists from Honda Research Institute USA, Inc. (HRI-US) have synthesized atomically thin “nanoribbons” – atomic scale thickness, ribbon-shaped materials – that have broad implications for the future of quantum electronics, the area of physics dealing with the...

The researchers have developed a system using a standard industrial robot that uses a parallel jaw gripper to handle objects and an Ensenso N35 3D cameras to see the world around it. The team’s system involves allowing humans to make more complex decisions that AI...
