Optimus robot at Tesla event

According to Tesla CEO Elon Musk, the Earth will have as many humanoid robots as humans in the future. He made this bold prediction at the Tesla's first 2023 investor event in Texas.

AI Study

Will robots be able to run the household in ten years?

According to AI experts, it is conceivable that robots will be able to perform tasks such as cleaning and shopping in the near future.

Object recognition with robot eyes

Research team develops artificial octopus eye

An international team of researchers has developed a novel artificial eye for robots that mimics the eye of squid.

Because every hour counts

Robot swarm supports search and rescue forces

Devastating natural disasters occur time and again. Turkey is currently affected by the impact of several severe earthquakes. What counts now is fast action, because missing and buried people have to be rescued in the "Golden 72 Hours. It's a race against time, and in the future, robots will play a key role.

Laser technology

A drone that flies forever

Scientists in China have developed a drone that is capable of recharging itself with the help of a laser and can thus theoretically fly in the air indefinitely.

From mushroom mycelium

Self-healing robot skin

Researchers have produced a living skin for robots from a 3D mesh of a hydrogel and a fungus. If damaged, the skin heals itself.

Tesla OPTIMUS

The All-In-One Robot for Everyone?

In addition to established robot manufacturers such as Boston Dynamics, well-known tech companies are also entering the lucrative market and regularly show their progress. Tesla can also point to a lot of experience in electric mobility and drive concepts, an advantage that also benefits robotics?

Indoor drone

Autonomous drone for factory planning

Researchers at the Institute for Integrated Production Hannover (IPH) have developed a drone that can fly autonomously indoors without GPS.

DeepMind

AI provides mathematical breakthrough

With Deep Reinforcement Learning, Google subsidiary DeepMind has discovered an algorithm that no human has yet come up with. It is supposed to accelerate matrix multiplication.

Autonomous cars with eyes

Researchers give cars giant eyes

If an autonomous car looks at a pedestrian, it stops; if it looks away, it continues driving. According to researchers, this should increase road safety.

Record

Mini robot jumps 30 meters high

A new world record, and not just for machines: the robot of a team from the University of California in Santa Barbara catapults itself more than 30 meters into the air.

Ameca at CES 2022

When robotics takes on a human face

More and more manufacturers are not only creating specialized automata that can be clearly defined as mechanical, but are also trying to make the robots' facial expressions and gestures appear more natural, with the main focus on a human face.

Strikingly similar

Brain activity and AI systems

Human brain activity patterns are remarkably similar to those of AI systems for code analysis. Study provides valuable insights into basic functioning of the human brain.

Machine Learning with ECG

Apple Watch can detect stress

The Apple Watch can generate an electrocardiogram (ECG) directly through its watch. Canadian researchers have examined what contribution the Apple Watch could make to stress detection.

Passenger flight soon without human pilots ?

Airbus UpNext tests assistance technologies

Safety is a top priority, especially in passenger traffic. It is therefore all the more gratifying that AI can also provide support in the air and, in the event of an emergency, bring Airbus jets safely back to earth.
