In the video released by Figure—a company founded by Brett Adcock with the financial backing of OpenAI, Nvidia, Microsoft, Intel, and Jeff Bezos—a robot who doesn’t have AGI or human appearance makes ...

Robots are super interesting, but you probably shouldn’t start learning about them with a full-sized industrial SCARA arm or anything. Better to learn with something smaller and simpler to understand.

If you’re designing a robot for a specific purpose, you’re probably ordering fresh parts and going with a clean sheet design. If you’re just building for fun though, you can just go with whatever ...

Over the last several decades, the design of robots has moved from an academic exercise and the domain of deep-pocketed corporations to the world of start-ups, hobbyists, and everyday people.

Five young innovators impressed global judges with their functional litter-collecting robot, securing first place after rebuilding their design from scratch.

Industrial robot adoption has reached a point of no return. Automated machinery has become an industry standard and will only become increasingly common as time goes on. As this trend continues, ...
