A new gesture controlled robotic arm has been created using a little Arduino hardware together with a Microsoft Kinect sensor the skills of a team of makers.

A robotic arm capable of mimicking hand gestures through data analysis of the mechanical activity of the muscles, using wearable piezoelectric sensors was developed.

Farmers might be able to get help tending and harvesting crops using a new sensing technology from Carnegie Mellon University ...

Facebook researchers propose Digit, a low-cost, high-resolution tactile sensor designed for in-hand robotic grasping tasks.

Before a robot arm can reach into a tight space or pick up a delicate object, the robot needs to know precisely where its hand is. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute ...

For a real-world, more-tangible demonstration of the potential of the stretchable electronics and sensors, the team outfitted a robotic hand (Star Wars Science, Darth Vader robotic arm) with ...

VideoFesto's robotic ExoHand also works as a human augmentation device. It may be time to jettison the notion that robots in the future will have grippers or claws for hands. The German ...

Before a robot arm can reach into a tight space or pick up a delicate object, the robot needs to know precisely where its hand is. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute ...

Researchers developed rubbery semiconductors for robotic and “smart” skins needed in gesture translation, haptic sensing for robotics, and implantable bioelectronics.

Before a robot arm can reach into a tight space or pick up a delicate object, the robot needs to know precisely where its hand is. Researchers have shown that a camera attached to the robot's hand ...
