The China Spring Festival Gala has long been recognized as one of the most influential cultural events in the country, ...

A team led by Northwestern University’s Sam Kriegman built an AI system that designed a walking robot from scratch in seconds ...

Mobile robot algorithms and coordination have emerged as a central discipline in robotics research, combining computational theory, distributed algorithms, and systems engineering. These algorithms ...

Evolution is a very slow process, due largely to the fact that nature doesn't "know" in advance which features of an animal will be beneficial. A new AI-based algorithm does know, however, allowing it ...

Plenty of companies have demoed home robots, but few, if any, have actually been released. The truth is that even the most advanced robots aren't very good at interacting with objects and environments ...

Can a robot keep up with Serena Williams? Researchers have taught a humanoid robot to play tennis with humans — and it can hold its own. Chinese AI robotic company Galbot designed software to teach a ...

Northwestern University engineers have developed the first modular robots with athletic intelligence. They can be combined ...

Researchers have designed an algorithm that can intercept a man-in-the-middle (MitM) cyberattack on an unmanned military robot and shut it down in seconds. The algorithm, tested in real time, achieved ...

A team at Northwestern University used artificial intelligence to evolve robot body plans inside a physics simulation, then physically assembled the top-performing designs and turned them loose on ...
