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.

Scientists built small ant inspired robots that work together using light signals. These robots can build or dig by following ...

In what might be one of the most underappreciated technological breakthroughs of our time, Alphabet's Google DeepMind has accomplished something deceptively difficult -- teaching a robot to tie ...

To anchor the long rows of server racks that power the artificial intelligence boom, every data center needs thousands of holes drilled into its concrete floor. It’s a precise part of the construction ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A wheeled bot rolls across the floor. A soft-bodied robotic star bends its five legs, moving with an awkward shuffle. Powered by ...

Artificial intelligence works when computers learn from data that is readily available. But there is no data to teach robots ...

I spent many weeks testing robot lawn mowers. While they saved me a lot of time, they're not as automated as I hoped. Here are six things that surprised me the most. Adam has been a leader in the tech ...

This simple robot, which responds to light and avoids obstacles, can be built without using a microcontroller, programmer or PC. The only ‘special’ component in the circuit is a window discriminator ...

Iman Soltani is developing active vision technology that would allow robots to change their line of sight and viewpoint to complete tasks instead of relying on multiple cameras. Here, Soltani (left) ...
