Identical to an actual human, Acrobot will generally kick you within the face.

Thanks, Elizabeth!
You had me at “wormlike, limbless robots.”

Filmed in July 2017, this video reveals us utilizing Atlas to place out a “hearth” on our loading dock. This makes use of a mixture of teleoperation and autonomous behaviors by a single, distant laptop. Robotic constructed by Boston Dynamics for the DARPA Robotics Problem in 2013. Software program by IHMC Robotics.
I’d say that in the midst of a rainstorm might be the most effective time to begin a hearth that you simply anticipate to be extinguished by a robotic.

We’re arduous at work, however Atlas nonetheless has time for a dance break.

That is fairly cool: BruBotics is testing their self-healing robotics gripper expertise on industrial grippers from Festo.

Thanks, Bram!

Impressed by caregiving specialists, we proposed a bimanual interactive robotic dressing help scheme, which is unprecedented in earlier analysis. Within the scheme, an interactive robotic joins arms with the human thus supporting/guiding the human within the dressing course of, whereas the dressing robotic performs the dressing job. This work represents a paradigm shift of pondering of the dressing help job from one-robot-to-one-arm to two-robot-to-one-arm.

Thanks, Jihong!
Tony Punnoose Valayil from the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences Institute of Robotics wrote in to share some very low value hand rehabilitation robots for dwelling use.
On this video, we current a robot-assisted rehabilitation of the wrist joint which might support in restoring the power that has been misplaced throughout the higher limb because of stroke. This robotic may be very cost-effective and can be utilized for dwelling rehabilitation.
On this video, we current an exoskeleton robotic which can be utilized at dwelling for rehabilitating the index and center fingers of stroke-affected sufferers. This robotic is constructed at a price of fifty euros for sufferers who will not be financially unbiased to get higher remedy.

Some very spectacular work right here from the Norwegian College of Science and Know-how (NTNU), exhibiting a drone monitoring its place utilizing radar and lidar-based odometry in some nightmare (for robots) environments, together with an extended tunnel that appears the identical in every single place and a hallway filled with smoke.

I’m sorry, however folks ought to actually know higher than to make movies like this for social robotic crowdfunding by now.
It’s on Kickstarter for about $300, and the truth that it’s been funded so shortly tells me that individuals have already forgotten concerning the social robotpocalypse.
