Parallel manipulators and robots constitute an advanced class of robotic systems where the end-effector is supported by several simultaneous kinematic chains. This architecture affords notable ...

Gravity compensation mechanisms are essential innovations in robotics that counteract gravitational forces acting on manipulator arms and platforms. By offsetting the inherent weight-induced torques, ...

Now, as a student in Northwestern Engineering's Master of Science in Robotics (MSR) program, Patil developed an open-source software package that filled what he saw as a gap in the robotics community.

Here we see a video of the Tesla Shanghai Model YL. Looking at the differences to Berlin. They have enclosed more areas so that parts are assembled with minimal humans monitoring. The speed of the car ...

MIT researchers have unveiled a robotic voxel assembly system that could reduce embodied carbon in construction by up to 82% compared with methods like 3D concrete printing and steel framing. The ...

MIT researchers have developed a robotic construction method using modular lattice units, or voxels, that in tests reduced embodied carbon for certain simple structures by as much as 82% compared with ...
