FieldAI, an Irvine, California-based robotics startup, has raised $405 million across multiple previously undisclosed rounds to develop what it calls “foundational embodied AI models” — essentially ...

The race to build the world’s first functional humanoid robots is no longer just a contest of hardware. It’s a high-stakes battle over two radically different philosophies of development, the crux of ...

Johns Hopkins University researchers have created a system that could make social robots more effective at detecting and managing user interruptions in real time based on a human speaker's intent—a ...

They don’t get fruitcakes or Christmas cards from grateful patients, but for decades robots have been helping doctors perform gallbladder removals, hysterectomies, hernia repairs, prostate surgeries ...

AlphaBot 2 wants to beat humans at their own game. When the robot is asked if it wants to play dice, it can interpret the question and jump into action – pressing the button on an automatic dice ...
