Researchers at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) have introduced a framework that can estimate thrust intensities of flying multibody systems that are not equipped with thrust-measuring sensors. This framework could ultimately help them to realize their envisioned flying humanoid robot. The main purpose of the research was to conceive robots that could operate in disaster-like scenarios, avoiding debris, fire and floods.

Inker Robotics, a main advanced robotics organization, has started a first-of-its-sort automation program to protect puppetry — the 4,000-year-old performing craftsmanship culture. The organization has imaginatively utilized innovation and automation to effectively imitate the artistic expression trying to save the embodiment and magnificence of a perishing fine art. The principal live model of the robotized interaction in puppetry is currently open and exhibited at the District Heritage Museum in Palakkad and was initiated by the Kerala State Government Archeological Department in India.

Swiss-Mile broadcasts its robot’s capacities making it a 3 in 1 machine: a vehicle, a quadruped, and a humanoid. Ready to drive at paces of 22 kph (more than 13 mph), the bot was created as a flexible stage for last-mile conveyances, fit for beating lightweight conveyance robots and other such vehicles. It is outfitted with LiDAR sensors, GPS and can convey instruments, merchandise, sensors, materials, and different things, both in indoor and open air spaces. The robot stands up, utilizes its front legs as arms, snatches the bundles, and…

In a scientific marvel, researchers at the University of Vermont, Tufts University, and the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University have found an altogether new type of organic propagation and applied their revelation to make the very first, self-recreating living robots. The very group that constructed the principal living robots (“Xenobots,” collected from frog cells) has found that these artificially planned and hand-gathered living beings can swim out into their small dish, track down single cells, assemble many of them, and build “baby” Xenobots inside their Pac-Man…
