The cost of the electronics and cameras needed for computer vision have plummeted making low-cost embedded vision for industrial robots, drones, and autonomous vehicles, a real possibility. The technology for computer and embedded vision exists, is now quite cheap, and…
As an alternative to the use of chemical pesticides which can have harmful affects on humans and the environment, farmers are experimenting with the use of drones. Drones are being used to apply pesticides with more precision so that less…
A robot swarm is a collection of similar robots where each is autonomous but also able to coordinate their movement and activities with the entire group. Typically a single robot in the swarm will be equipped with environment sensors like…
Robots are being designed to dexterously and safely grab onto and hold objects. The technology to do this is called ‘soft robotics’ and requires feedback circuits that determine the appropriate pressure to apply when holding the object. Historically, robots have…
