Researchers have designed an intelligent household robot capable of autonomous navigation, object detection, and sorting. This robot, equipped with advanced technologies like depth cameras, YOLOv11 ...

Humans can ‘feel’ hidden objects under sand from 2.76 inches away, revealing the surprising power of remote touch.

Robots and autonomous vehicles can use 3D point clouds from LiDAR sensors and camera images to perform 3D object detection. However, current techniques that combine both types of data struggle to ...

Object avoidance is a tough nut to crack on robot vacuums, but Narwal's new Flow 2 promises it has the best yet with a mix of ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA – A human clearing junk out of an attic can often guess the contents of a box simply by picking it up and giving it a shake, without the need to see what’s inside. Researchers from MIT, ...

The newer of the two is the Roomba j7+, which came out at the end of last year. It's technically not as powerful as the s9+, but it has new AI-driven computer vision technology that helps it detect ...

To effectively tackle a variety of real-world tasks, robots should be able to reliably grasp objects of different shapes, textures and sizes, without dropping them in undesired locations. Conventional ...

Researchers have compiled a dataset that captures the detailed behavior of a robotic system physically pushing hundreds of different objects. Using the dataset -- the largest and most diverse of its ...
