Thank you, Jinyan!
I love this robot, but can someone explain why something that happens at 2:00 makes me physically uncomfortable?

Thank you, Ayato!
This robot, REWW-ARM, is a remote-powered mobile robot that separates and eliminates the electronics from the mobile part, so the mobile robot can operate in harsh environments. The new transmission mechanism enables efficient data transmission over long distances without the use of electronics. energy transferfeedback control that evaluates the distal state along the wire. This demonstrated movement and manipulations on land and under water.

Thank you, Takahiro!
DEEP Robotics deployed the first in China Robot dog patrols team to protect against forest fires in the West Lake area. These devices, based on embedded artificial intelligence, four-legged robots support early detection, patrolling and monitoring of risks, using technology to protect nature and strengthen emergency response.

In this video we'll show you how we taught our robot to fold a towel from start to finish. Folding a towel may seem simple, but for a robot it involves solving problems of perception, planning and deft manipulation immediately, especially if we are talking about soft, deformable tissue. We'll look at how the system sees the towel, identifies key functions and autonomously performs each fold.

It may be the first app store for humanoids, but it's far from the first app store for robots. The problem is that for an app store to gain traction, there must be a platform that people will buy primarily for its core features.

You can tell that this research is not funded by the US government because it includes robot bringing drinks.

This video shows persistence Mars The rover's viewpoint during the record-breaking flight, which occurred on June 19, 2025, the 1540th Martian day, or sol, of the mission. Perseverance Rover Moved north and covered 1350.7 feet (411.7 meters) in approximately 4 hours 24 minutes. This distance surpassed the previous record for distance traveled in one sol: 1,140.7 feet (347.7 meters), which was achieved on April 3, 2023 (Sol 753).

Automation This is what helped lock manufacturer Wilson Bohannan stay in America for over 150 years while all of its competitors moved overseas. Using two high speed and high precision FANUK For the M-10 Series robots, Acme has developed a simple yet highly complex system that uses innovative end-of-arm tools to install 18 different types of padlocks. With Acme's new system using FANUC robots, Wilson Bohannan's production skyrocketed from 1,500 to 1,800 completed locks per eight-hour shift to more than 5,000.
