Improvements to a prediction algorithm used in a car manufacturing plant could help robots and humans work better together when sharing the same floor space, whilst maintaining efficiency.

The new algorithm could help robots make safer, smarter decisions around humans, even amidst the greatest uncertainties.

Robots have amazing efficiency compared to human beings. Using algorithms that optimize work processes, robots are engineered to perform their assigned tasks to completion as efficiently as ...

The robots may at times have to drop the objects they were holding and pick them up again, especially if the algorithm did not have time to calculate an optimal solution.

A new tool for predicting a person's movement trajectory may help humans and robots work together in close proximity.

Today's industrial robots are remarkably efficient—as long as they're in a controlled environment where everything is exactly where they expect it to be.

Researchers will present a new, decentralized planning algorithm for teams of robots that factors in not only stationary obstacles, but also moving obstacles. The algorithm also requires ...

A team of researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology has developed an algorithm that teaches robots how to fall, allowing them to trip up with a little more grace, and hopefully cause ...

When you’re a robot, a new motion-planning algorithm can mean the difference between waving your arms around like an inflatable tube man and reaching for a coffee mug like you’re supposed to ...

Algorithm tells robots where nearby humans are headed Date: June 12, 2019 Source: Massachusetts Institute of Technology Summary: A new tool for predicting a person's movement trajectory may help ...
