Integrated motion control allows all kinds of robots to tackle a range of tasks with precision, in contrast with conventional ...
Mobile robots must continuously estimate their position to navigate autonomously. However, satellite-based navigation systems are not always reliable: signals may degrade near buildings or become ...
China is deploying overhead rail-mounted charging robots in parking garages that automatically travel to your car and plug in ...
Japanese firms Toshiba and MIRISE Technologies have demonstrated a breakthrough in autonomous mobility. The ...
Precise motion control often requires more than tracking position within a single rotation. Multi-turn encoders provide ...
Stanford mechanical engineer Renee Zhao is developing new devices to treat disease – like a tiny robot that can travel through the vascular system to shrink blood clots in the brain. Stanford ...
A robotic device allows eye surgeons to perform high-precision procedures on the retina, the fragile lining on the back of the eye that is less than a millimeter thick. When even the most highly ...
