Non-Cartesian actuators are improving applications where they weren't even feasible before. Full definition of their dynamics and kinematics helps designers extract maximum performance from these ...

Robotic arms and legs provide robots with reach and the ability to affect the robot’s position and its environment. This book examines the process of controlling and tracking robotic limbs. It ...

Normally when you hear the words “rope” and “dog” in the same sentence, you think about a dog on a leash, but in this robot dog, the rope is what makes it move, not what stops it from going too far.

We’ve covered a ton of Boston Dynamics robots but this is the second one in a row that has shown a departure from what a lot of people’s notion of an ‘advanced’ robot should look like. It’s a ...

The newly developed flexible milling kinematics with hybrid drive on a linear axis machines a carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) vertical tail plane on a 1:1 scale with high precision. Source | ...

Humanoid robots are rapidly improving in motion fluidity, making them more human-like and suitable for complex tasks.
