Modular design is rapidly becoming the key to cost-effective automation, especially in sectors where demand variability and ...

The age of the human-only workplace may be coming to an end. A farms and a construction company are a preview of what’s to come.

In the latest example, a Shanghai historic building moved by robots is capturing global attention. The relocation of the complex in Huayang, a Shikumen-style building weighing about 7,500 metric ...

Smaller “structure-reconfiguring” robots grab the dis-assembled components for the “vertical” parts of the building, and put them upright. They slot them vertically and screw/weld them ...

A giant robot can now 3D print a building. Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have created a robotic system that built the basic structure of a building in less than 14 hours.

TOP IMAGE: ERO, a demolition robot on caterpillar-style treads, uses water jets to “erase” concrete into aggregate and leave behind pristine, recyclable rebar. Developed in Sweden, the robots can be ...

Researchers from MIT have created prototype assembly robots called BILL-E (Bipedal Isotropic Lattice Locomoting Explorer) that can build small structures on their own or work together to create ...

Humans and robots have distinct strengths and weaknesses, which is why a human-in-the-loop model makes sense for companies embracing automation. Veo Robotics is a Waltham, Massachusetts-based ...

Smart robots building space stations in orbit may be in the future, but there are plenty of other examples of how smart robots and automation are becoming critical to the future of spaceflight.

Many companies have plans to implement robots and automation in their long-term strategies, but COVID-19 has forced organizations towards a digital transformation sooner than they had planned.

San Francisco soft robotics startup Breeze Automation made its debut today onstage at TechCrunch’s TC Sessions: Robotics + AI event at UC Berkeley.

But in a world of enhanced robotics, factory automation, 3-D printing, generative design, and design-make-use convergence, engineers’ project limitations will fade away. And it’s all because machine ...
