As automation becomes more prevalent at warehouses and in other environments, humans and robots are increasingly sharing each other's spaces. Real-time collaborations between them remain tricky, however, and focus on how people adapt to their mechanical co-workers.
Research from Binghamton University and the consumer electronics and mobile communications company OPPO has developed a new way to bridge the human communication gap with multiple robots using augmented reality (AR), which uses technology to add digital visuals, sound or other stimuli to a
Buzz Off, Bees. Pollination Robots Are Here. - WSJ
Farmers have long relied on insects, wind and even human workers to help pollinate their crops. Now, advances in artificial intelligence are helping some startups develop another way to pollinate plants: robots.
Across the globe, startups are testing robots to pollinate everything from blueberries to almonds. And in Australia, one company is so confident in robots' abilities that it will soon deploy a fleet of them to pollinate tomatoes in its greenhouses.
Grubhub will use Russian-made robots to deliver food on college campuses - The Verge
Grubhub and Russian self-driving startup Yandex are teaming up to use robots to deliver food on US college campuses. It represents the latest deal that envisions hundreds of six-wheeled self-driving robots that essentially act as roving lunchboxes in cities across the country.
Designing exploratory robots that collect data for marine scientists | MIT News | Massachusetts
As the Chemistry-Kayak (affectionately known as the ChemYak) swept over the Arctic estuary waters, Victoria Preston was glued to a monitor in a boat nearby, watching as the robot's sensors captured new data. She and her team had spent weeks preparing for this deployment.
Growing up near the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland, Preston learned about the importance of environmental conservation from a young age. She became passionate about how next-generation technologies could be used as tools to make a difference.
Robots Can Make Music, but Can They Sing? - The New York Times
LONDON — For its first 30 seconds, the song " Listen to Your Body Choir " is a lilting pop tune, with a female voice singing over gentle piano. Then, everything starts to fracture, as twitchy beats and samples fuse with bizarre lyrics like "Do the cars come with push-ups?
"Listen to Your Body Choir," which won this year's A.I. Song Contest, was produced by M.O.G.I.I.7.E.D., a California-based team of musicians, scholars and A.I. experts.
AI-Driven Robots Are Here For Good
Artificial intelligence (AI) is just a supporting player in the wider world of robotics. Unlike sensationalist sci-fi flicks, robots have had an important role since the earliest days of industrialization.
AI, algorithms and technological applications are accelerating into new realms. With the proper implementation of ethics, diversity, and inclusive design - humans stand to benefit significantly.
A universal approach to tailoring soft robots | EurekAlert! Science News
By combining two distinct approaches into an integrated workflow, Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) researchers have developed a novel automated process for designing and fabricating customised soft robots.
Though robots are often depicted as stiff, metallic structures, an emerging class of pliable machines known as soft robots is rapidly gaining traction.

Production, warehouse, shipping - where goods are produced, stored, sorted or packed, picking also takes place. This means that several individual goods are removed from storage units such as boxes or cartons and reassembled.
Social robots on the rise in the Netherlands
Dutch futurologist Mike van Rijswijk of The Innovation Playground was one of the first to see the opportunities and possibilities of robots in the Netherlands, and while he believes strides have been made in the acceptance of robots by humans, he said it is just the beginning of a new era.
Van Rijswijk loves robots, ever since he had them as toys in his childhood and saw them on television in shows like The Jetsons . "I don't care much for cars, but I can get very excited by robots," he laughed.
