MagicLab has unveiled its first-generation dexterous hand, the MagicHand S01, boasting 11 degrees of freedom (DoF) in a single hand. Equipped with force-position control and integrated current and ...

A 16-year-old student from Bristol has built an anthropomorphic robotic hand entirely from Lego parts, and it performs almost as well as professional research models. Called the Educational SoftHand-A ...

Shellfish and robots might sound like they have nothing in common, but according to PhD candidate Aleix Costa, roboticists can learn a lot from nature. His research aims to bring these two worlds ...

Caleb Rucker, an associate professor and B. Ray Thompson Professor in the Department of Mechanical, Aerospace, and Biomedical Engineering, and a team from the University of Tennessee are part of a ...

The Genesis Project represents a significant leap forward in the convergence of generative AI and physics simulation, reshaping the way robots are trained and developed. By integrating innovative ...
