Researchers are developing better, faster ways of providing human guidance to autonomous robots. Told to optimize for speed while racing down a track in a computer game, a car pushes the ped... Read more
Like the state animal of New York, the rover-like vehicle uses surroundings to build complex structures, overcome obstacles Autonomous robots excel in factories and other manmade spaces, but... Read more
MIT researchers have designed a new chip to implement neural networks. It is 10 times as efficient as a mobile GPU, so it could enable mobile devices to run powerful artificial-intelligence... Read more
Energy-friendly chip can perform powerful artificial-intelligence tasks In recent years, some of the most exciting advances in artificial intelligence have come courtesy of convolutional neu... Read more
A small band of NASA engineers and interns is about to begin testing a group of robots and related software that will show whether it’s possible for autonomous machines to scurry about... Read more
Algorithm that harnesses data from a new sensor could make autonomous robots more nimble. One of the reasons we don’t yet have self-driving cars and mini-helicopters delivering online purcha... Read more
“While drones still have a ‘human in the loop’ who takes the decision to use lethal force, LARs have on-board computers that decide who should be targeted” The United Nations Special Rapport... Read more
Algorithms enable robot to navigate and view propellers and other complex structures. For years, the U.S. Navy has employed human divers, equipped with sonar cameras, to search for underwate... Read more
