Rome, Sep 2 (EFE).- Artificial intelligence and robotics are for the first time being used to piece together fragments and frescos from the doomed Ancient Roman city of Pompeii.
Machines equipped with robotic arms are able to scan archaeological fragments, create a 3D digital model and organize the thousands of pieces into place, like a jigsaw puzzle, to reveal a complete picture of the Roman art blanketed by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79AD, the archaeological park said
Tuscaloosa looks to robots for park lawn maintenance
Pending final approval by the full City Council, the robotic mowers, called "goats," will be deployed in Annette Shelby Park at first, with aspirations of moving them to other city-maintained areas, within reason.
"We would never put these mowers on the side of McFarland (Boulevard) or anything like that," said Jarrod Milligan, acting director of the city's Infrastructure and Public Services, "but we do have some areas we could strategically put them and there wouldn't be any issues."
These cute electric robots may soon deliver your dinner - Electrek
Kiwibot is a last-mile delivery service that has completed over 150,000 food deliveries using electric semi-autonomous robots. Yesterday, the company announced its official expansion into San Jose, Miami-Dade County, Pittsburgh, and Detroit.
Kiwibot delivers food using electric semi-autonomous robots. They look like cute lunchboxes on wheels with a cheeky little flag. (Come to think of it, I guess they are lunchboxes on wheels.
Robots can trick us into thinking we are socially interacting and slow our reactions, scientists
It has long been known that making eye contact with a robot can be an unsettling experience. Scientists even have a name for the queasy feeling: the "uncanny valley".
A team at the Istituto Italiano Di Tecnologia (IIT) in Genoa has shown how a robot's gaze can trick us into thinking we are socially interacting and slow our ability to make decisions.
New food delivery robots at University of Kentucky
LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — No, you're not imagining them. This fall, a fleet of small robots are rolling out at the University of Kentucky.
"I thought they were kinda cute," said sophomore Sophia Dal Pra. "I mean, they're, like, tiny, and they deliver you food. Kinda like a little servant."
Latest Robots in Space Agencies to Know and Watch About
Do you know? According to the latest report from 2020 to 2027, the global space robotics market is likely to surge at a growth rate of 5.2%.
Vyommitra is a humanoid robot made in India. This robot is designed for an ambitious project of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), the Gaganyaan mission. This first human spaceflight program is scheduled for 2022.
American Companies Rent Robots to Small Factories
Better technology and rising wages are leading an increase in sales of robots to big companies all across America. But smaller factories have shown less interest in the devices. Robots are costly purchases.
Now, some investors are supporting a financial plan for a robot pay-by-use plan. This means smaller factories could pay to use a robot when they want its service, but they would not own the device.
In competition with humanoid robots, humans delay their decisions when robots see them - Florida

This project, called InStance, addresses the question of when and under what conditions people treat robots as intentional beings.That is, to explain and interpret robot Behavior, people refer to mental states such as beliefs and desires.
We're Getting Closer to Flying Humanoid Robots - IEEE Spectrum
A couple of years ago, we wrote about a bipedal robot called Jet-HR1 under development at the Guangdong University of Technology. With little foot-mounted ducted fans, Jet-HR1 could step across very wide gaps by using the thrust created by the fans to futz with its center of gravity.
This is obviously just the first tentative little airborne hop, but by the end of the video, you can see that the stabilization works pretty well. I wouldn't call it completely controllable yet, but it's tangible progress.
