MIT engineers are getting in on the robotic ping pong game with a powerful, lightweight design that returns shots with ...

MIT engineers have developed a lightweight, high-speed robotic arm capable of returning ping pong shots with impressive precision and speed.

On-screen duo Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves who first saved a bus full of people in 1994’s “Speed” before reuniting for the 2006 romantic flick “The Lake House,” are set to team up once again in a ...

A ball-and-socket mount allows users to adjust the angle of the module relative to the bike, plus it gives way to absorb impact energy in the event of crashes or other mishaps. Once an app has ...

The rise of the machines seems closer than we might like to think. Freaky footage captured the moment that a humanoid robot seemingly snapped and lashed out at its handlers like something out of a ...

For example, I'm not blessed with the largest kitchen, and that and the plug socket-free bathroom are the only hard-floor rooms in my home. There's actually only one place where my robot vacuums ...

Years back, when a small website called out for product-review editors. I leapt at the opportunity: I’d just wrapped up a four-year stint as a systems supplier. That experience provided the ...

One of the most basic problems with robotic arms and similar systems is keeping the weight down, as more weight requires a more rigid frame and stronger actuators. Cable-driven systems are a ...

And if setting up facial recognition systems wasn't enough for the Chinese government to keep tabs on Chongqing's population, the city has also introduced the use of inspection robots.

Robotic liquid dispensers, plate handlers, automated plate readers and scanners are just a few of the instruments designed to make life in the lab simpler for scientists. And although these ...

We’re big fans of repairable hardware here at Hackaday, so much so that when we see a company embracing the idea that their products should actually be serviced rather than thrown in the trash ...
