Humanoid robots have surgically removed the gallbladders from living animals in an unprecedented medical experiment—but not ...

Robots revolutionized the manufacturing industry by automating assembly lines. Now, more and more, they are being used to expedite the pace of scientific discovery. Neutron scattering instruments are ...

Researchers in the Carnegie Mellon University School of Computer Science have developed an open-source software framework designed to make it easier to deploy AI systems across different robots ...

Machine-learning models can speed up the discovery of new materials by making predictions and suggesting experiments. But most models today only consider a few specific types of data or variables.

Science laboratories across disciplines--chemistry, biochemistry and materials science--are on the verge of a sweeping transformation as robotic automation and AI lead to faster and more precise ...

A $2,500 pair of humanoid robot legs built from 3D-printed parts and off-the-shelf components is not going to win marathons just yet. But such relatively inexpensive hardware could enable researchers ...

Integrating generative artificial intelligence and robotics to pursue decarbonization and ecological design—advancing both creative exploration and high environmental performance in architecture. This ...

A robot showed basic signs of self-consciousness in an experiment that required the robot to hear its own voice and reason. Three Nao robots were programmed to understand the rules of a simple task.

Some of Britian's biggest labs face cuts even though government science spending is at record levels.

The National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) supported 58,800 science fund projects last year, allocating a total ...
