Tech firms aim to trigger a robot revolution with video of humans doing housework. Gig workers are paid up to $25 an hour to film themselves doing various tasks.

Teaching a robot arm to pick up a new object used to require thousands of practice runs. Google DeepMind says it has cut that number to roughly 100, a shift that could reshape how quickly machines adapt in warehouses,

Millions spent on humanoid robots depend on gig workers recording daily tasks, signaling a shift in AI training and work.

Aug. 20 (UPI) --A humanoid robot can now perform complex tasks with a large behavior model without needing hand programming for each task. Boston Dynamics and Toyota Research Institute announced this breakthrough Wednesday in a press release. In a video ...

Munich-based company RobCo recently unveiled a new industrial humanoid robot – named Autonomous Alfie

Last September roboticist Benjie Holson posted the “Humanoid Olympic Games”: a set of increasingly difficult tests for humanoid robots that he demonstrated himself while dressed in a silver bodysuit. The challenges, such as opening a door with a round ...

SoftBank's humanoid robot "Pepper" can lead funerals. Rodrigo Reyes Marin/AFLO/Alamy Live News News of a Japanese robot conducting Buddhist funerals got us thinking about how our robot-filled future is fast becoming our robot-filled present. Robots ...

The new model, called π0.7, represents what the company describes as an early but meaningful step toward the long-sought goal of a general-purpose robot brain.

Robots such as Boston Dynamics’ four-legged Spot can now accurately read analog thermometers and pressure gauges while roaming around factories and warehouses. Those improvements come courtesy of Google DeepMind’s newest robotic AI model that aims to enhance robotic capabilities for ‘embodied reasoning’ when interacting with physical environments.
