New winged robot can land like a bird
Researchers have developed a method that allows a flapping-wing robot to land autonomously on a horizontal perch using a claw-like mechanism. The innovation could significantly expand the scope of robot-assisted tasks. Read More
New robot does ‘the worm’ when temperature changes
A new gelatinous robot that crawls, powered by nothing more than temperature change and clever design, brings ‘a kind of intelligence’ to the field of soft robotics. Read More
Model shows how intelligent-like behavior can emerge from non-living agents
A new model describes how biological or technical systems form complex structures equipped with signal-processing capabilities that allow the systems to respond to stimulus and perform functional tasks without external guidance. Read More
Bolstering the safety of self-driving cars with a deep learning-based object detection system
Self-driving cars need to implement efficient, effective, and accurate detection systems to provide a safe and reliable experience to its users. To this end, an international research team has now developed an end-to-end neural network that, in conjunction with the…
Computer vision technology effective at determining proper mask wearing in a hospital setting, pilot study finds
In a survey and study of hospital employee volunteers, researchers found that a low-cost computer vision system was feasible and well received. Read More
Formation of Robust Bound States of Interacting Photons
Posted by Alexis Morvan and Trond Andersen, Research Scientists, Google Quantum AI When quantum computers were first proposed, they were hoped to be a way to better understand the quantum world. With a so-called “quantum simulator,” one could engineer a…
