While most robot limbs have a small motor and a large gear ratio, Ghost Robotics employ a larger motor and a lower gear ratio. Their robots sense the ground resistance directly via the motor – hence the company slogan, 'robots that feel the world' – and responds instantly, thanks to a smart electronic microcontroller. Co-founder and CPO Gavin Kenneally told Forbes that their design delivers simpler, more robust walking machines, with the potential for much lower-cost production.

A trusty robot to carry farms into the future | ZDNet
The company's robot, Carry, uses artificial intelligence, automation, and electric power, to transport up to 500 pounds of crops during harvest. Via computer-vision-powered autonomy or through remote control operation, Carry autonomously follows farmworkers for a whole day's work thanks to a 7-10 hour battery range or 6-10 miles traversed terrain navigation.
People trust robots more than themselves with money, according to global study
Research shows growing confidence among consumers and business leaders that robots handle finance tasks better than people
2020 has changed our relationship with money and people now trust robots more than themselves to manage their finances, according to a new study by Oracle and personal finance expert Farnoosh Torabi.
The study of more than 9,000 consumers and business leaders in 14 countries found that the COVID-19 pandemic has increased financial anxiety, sadness, and fear among people around the world and has changed who and what we trust to manage our finances.

The appearance of robots affects our perception of the morality of their decisions | EurekAlert!
Moralities of Intelligent Machines is a project that investigates people's attitudes towards moral choices made by artificial intelligence. In the latest study completed under the project, study participants read short narratives where either a robot, a somewhat humanoid robot known as iRobot, a robot with a strong humanoid appearance called iClooney or a human being encounters a moral problem along the lines of the trolley dilemma, making a specific decision.
"Humanness in artificial intelligence is perceived as eerie or creepy, and attitudes towards such robots are more negative than towards more machine-like robots. This may be due to, for example, the difficulty of reacting to a humanoid being: is it an animal, a human or a tool?"

The robot revolution is here: How it's changing jobs and businesses in Canada
Joshua A. Marshall receives funding from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) under Discovery grant RGPIN-2015-04025.

In 2017, I returned to Canada from Sweden, where I had spent a year working on automation in mining . Shortly after my return, the New York Times published a piece called, " The Robots Are Coming, and Sweden Is Fine ," about Sweden's embrace of automation while limiting human costs.
Whether we like it or not, the robot era is already upon us. The question is: Is the Canadian economy poised to flourish or flounder in a world where robots take over the tasks we don't want to do ourselves? The answer may surprise you.
FDA clears two surgical robots focused on imaging, spine
The FDA approved two Brainlab surgical robots: the Loop-X Mobile Imaging Robot and Cirq, a robotic surgical system for spine procedures, the company announced Feb. 22.
Both devices received a CE mark in mid-2020. The FDA clearance allows the company to begin selling the robotic systems in the U.S.
The company believes the Loop-X is the first fully robotic intraoperative imaging device on the market, while the Cirq robotic alignment module assists surgeons during spine procedures.
