Researchers at the University of Bristol have developed a robotic suction cup prototype that is much stronger than current industrial solutions. It can grab onto rough, curved, and heavy objects like stones. The scientists were inspired by the way natural organisms, such as octopuses, can stick to rocks with their suckers. “We know that in nature there are so many soft-bodied organisms, for example, octopuses and snails and some kind of fishes, they can adaptively suck onto irregular surfaces,” said Tianqi Yue, a robotics researcher at the University of Bristol. Yue says all around us nature h...

Are androids our friends or foes? It depends on the context. Most G7 countries have mixed feelings toward robots, according to a survey conducted by United Robotics on nearly 8,000 people in the US, France, Canada, Italy and Germany, and received exclusively by Euronews Next. Although the majority see further developments as "inevitable," many people are still concerned that in the future, robots may just get too intrusive. Humanoid robots are already here. But do we really need them and will they replace humans?People largely reject the idea of human-looking androidsThe standout fear across a...

A headless, four-legged robot will be employed protect wildlife at a US airport. About the size of a Labrador, it will be camouflaged as a coyote or fox to ward off migratory birds and other animals. The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities has named the new robot Aurora and said it will be based at the Fairbanks airport - the state's second largest - to “enhance and augment safety and operations", the Anchorage Daily News reported. The transportation department released a video of the robot climbing rocks, going up stairs and doing something akin to dancing while flashing...

As autonomous robots become more advanced, some in the marine industry say they could replace dangerous and expensive work at sea. At a biannual ocean technology conference held in London, marine tech insiders gathered to present new high-tech vessels. Using its onboard sensors, the Norwegian company Maritime Robotics' uncrewed surface vessel "The Otter" manoeuvred across the water at the convention. Humanoid robot-maker Figure partners with OpenAI and gets backing from Jeff Bezos and tech giantsEquipped with sonar sensors and GPS mapping, it’s designed to scan the sea floor to collect informa...

This wasn't my usual interview. As I logged in to the Zoom meeting, there, on my computer screen, was a figure unlike any I had ever encountered. It was Ai-Da, dubbed the "world's first ultra-realistic artist robot", gazing back at me with an eerie, lifelike intensity. But she was not alone. Joining her was her proud creator Aidan Meller. "The greatest artists in history grappled with their period of time, and both celebrated and questioned society’s shifts. Ai-Da Robot as technology, is the perfect artist today to discuss the current developments with technology and its unfolding legacy," he ...
