“Every block of expanded polystyrene foam has a statue inside it and it is the task of the dual-arm hot wire-wielding robot to discover it.” — [Michelangelo], probably. Be prepare… ...

An AI method enables the generation of sharp, high-quality 3D shapes that are closer to the quality of the best 2D image models. Previous approaches typically generated blurry or cartoonish 3D shapes.

How to train a robot (using AI and supercomputers) Date: January 19, 2021 Source: University of Texas at Austin, Texas Advanced Computing Center Summary: Computer scientists developed a deep ...

For robots though, picking up a variety of shapes poses a significant challenge. Thanks to work carried out at the University of California Berkeley, at least one robot is handily overcoming that ...

Depending which hinges are activated, the robot can adopt various shapes and potentially wrap itself around other objects, and then unfold itself back into a flat sheet.

The process uses acoustic pressure to mold silica gel microspheres and other materials into complex 3D shapes. Pulling that off isn't easy.

This marvelous breakthrough in robot technology allowed the entire mechanical and electronic systems needed to operate a robot to be manufactured all at once. This new type of 3D printing process uses ...
