Current Robotics News Events, Discoveries and Articles
Research teams successfully operate multiple biomedical robots from numerous locations
Using a new software protocol called the Interoperable Telesurgical Protocol, nine research teams from universities and research institutes around the world recently collaborated on the first successful demonstration of multiple biomedical robots operated from different locations in the U.S., Europe, and Asia. SRI International operated its M7 surgical robot for this demonstration. (2009-09-18)
Opals set to shine with new grading technology
CSIRO and a consortium of Australian Opal miners (Opal Producers Australia Limited) have unveiled the world's first automated device to grade opals using image analysis, at the 2009 National Council of Jewellery Valuers forum in Sydney. (2009-08-31)
Want responsible robotics? Start with responsible humans
When the legendary science fiction writer Isaac Asimov penned the "Three Laws of Responsible Robotics," he forever changed the way humans think about artificial intelligence, and inspired generations of engineers to take up robotics. (2009-07-30)
Game utilizes human intuition to help computers solve complex problems
A new computer game prototype combines work and play to help solve a fundamental problem underlying many computer hardware design tasks. (2009-07-29)
SRI International and Showa Denko K.K. Announce Breakthrough Performance in Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) Devices for Solid-State Lighting Applications
SRI International, an independent nonprofit research institute, and Showa Denko K.K. (SDK), a Japan-based chemical industry company in partnership with Itochu Plastics Inc. (CIPS), have achieved record-breaking results using SRI's new cavity organic light-emitting diode (COLED) technology and SDK's light-emitting polymers to produce a highly efficient light source that could one day replace incandescent and fluorescent light bulbs.

Yawn alert for weary drivers
We've all experienced it after long hours driving, the eyelids getting heavy, a deep yawn, neck muscles relaxing, the urge to sleep, the head nodding down... But, you're hands are still on the wheel and you only just stopped yourself nodding off in time to avoid the oncoming traffic. (2009-07-28)
Ants more rational than humans
In a study released online on July 22 in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society: Biological Sciences, researchers at Arizona State University and Princeton University show that ants can accomplish a task more rationally than our - multimodal, egg-headed, tool-using, bipedal, opposing-thumbed - selves. (2009-07-27)
Blind can take wheel with vehicle designed by university engineering design team
A student team in the Virginia Tech College of Engineering is providing the blind with an opportunity many never thought possible: The opportunity to drive. (2009-07-16)
New species of spiders discovered by UBC scientist in Papua New Guinea
A University of British Columbia researcher has discovered dozens of species of jumping spiders that are new to science, giving scientists a peek into a section of the evolutionary tree previously thought to be sparse. (2009-03-25)
Wag the Robot? Brown scientists build robot that responds to human gestures
Imagine a day when you turn to your own personal robot, give it a task and then sit down and relax, confident that your robot is doing exactly what you wanted it to do. (2009-03-11)
