Deformable object manipulation in robotics is an increasingly critical research area, addressing the challenge of handling materials that do not maintain a fixed shape under manipulation. Unlike rigid ...

The ability to manipulate objects using physical tweezers is essential in fields such as physics, chemistry, and biology. However, conventional tweezers often require complex electrode arrays and ...

Fig. 1(a) illustrates a typical robotic manipulation system. It features a robotic arm equipped with sensors like cameras and end-effectors such as grippers, enabling it to manipulate a wide range of ...

Scientists summarize, compare and contrast research in learned robot manipulation through the lens of adaptability and outline promising research directions for the future. What if a robot could ...

If you thought fire-bending was impossible, think again. The Jumbo Jugglers is a student group dedicated to providing an outlet for people of any background to learn the skills of object manipulation, ...

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 ...

In laboratories from Brazil to Munich, researchers are learning to grab matter with sound alone, sculpting ultrasonic waves ...

At Sharpa, our mission is to build robots that are useful in our daily lives. We believe robots should help us handle ...

Forward-looking: Adobe has gone all-in on AI-based image generation and editing, introducing AI tools across its software stack and perhaps most impressively, doing so in a very timely manner. Ahead ...
