Droidlet enables researchers to build robots that accomplish tasks either in the real world or in simulated environments like Minecraft or Habitat.

The Ensenso S10 is designed for applications where variant objects need to be safely gripped or obstacles need to be detected for collision-free movements.

The Profinet communication protocol is designed to meet the demanding conditions within an industrial environments.

Guided by a set program that autonomously switched between off, low, medium, and high pressures, the robotic hand was able to press the buttons on the controller to successfully complete the first level of Super Mario Bros. in less than 90 seconds.

The tool lets users select one or two 3D sensors to instantly analyze and compare minimum range, maximum range, horizontal field of view, vertical field of view, and diagonal field of view. You can also click and drag for different viewpoints.

OpenAI disbands its robotics research team due to lack of large enough data sets to effectively generate reinforcement models.

ATI is a leading developer of end-of-arm tooling, including robotic changing systems, force/torque sensors, and collision sensors for industrial, collaborative, and medical robotic applications.

Created at NASA’s JPL, the open-source flight software called F Prime powered humanity’s first interplanetary helicopter.

SICK said the camera is designed for high-end inspection and precise localization duties when mounted on a robot arm.

American Robotics announce a partnership that fulfills the FAA requirements for the safe operation of drones beyond the line of sight.

The 3D time-of-flight depth sensor for AMRs and cobots offers a 360° x 60° field of view at 30fps.

NVIDIA releases the Isaac Sim version of its NVIDIA Omniverse simulation software, including new features to help train machine learning models.

Velodyne’s solid-state Velabit sensor now has approximately three times more points per second than the previous model.

Vention’s manufacturing automation platform accelerates the design and deployment of modular applications for robot guidance systems with SICK.

Genesis Robotics launches LiveDrive LDD 1800 series direct-drive actuators, that enable high speed, oil-free, low maintenance operations.

ACEINNA announces the general availability of the OpenIMU335RI, a rugged inertial measurement unit with CAN and RS232 interfaces. The device includes three independent 3-Axis accelerometers and 3-Axis Gyros

Creating ‘commercial-grade’ software that is robust enough to be deployed in thousands of robots in the real world, at prices that make that scale achievable, is the next challenge for the industry.

Once a Jackal or Husky robot navigates to within several centimeters of a charging station, power is automatically delivered through the air.

This seventh version of ROS 2 is an interim release will be supported until November 2022.

The technology uses tactile sensing to identify objects underground and might one day help disarm land mines or inspect cables.

The Soft Bubble Gripper uses visuo-tactile sensing techniques that allow a robot to recognize objects by shape, track their orientation in its grasp and sense forces as it interacts with the world.

MassRobotics AMR Interoperability Working Group, comprised of AMR vendors, engineers and AMR end-user companies, has published a consortium-built standard to guide robotic automation interoperability.
