It was only a matter of time before we started to think about how robots can design – other robots. In fact, I’ve been having these conversations with people ever since the arrival of ChatGPT ...

We've seen how architects hope to use robots to fabricate buildings, but are there other applications for the machines in design? In Wired Design, Joseph Flaherty highlights two examples of robots ...

Robots should be designed so that even vulnerable users know that they are machines. But how do we create something engaging that is so obviously artificial?

She acknowledges robots can be expensive and difficult to design, which is why we don’t commonly see them in the average household. But she wants to change that through her research. Sung runs the ...

To get the most mileage of out your robot, add the dimension of mobility by incorporating a linear seventh axis.

For robots to be predictable and adaptive, they need a priority-based architecture and a new legal model, argues a researcher ...

iRobot has used its new design, software, and data science strategies to expand into new areas, using an approach to the smart home that is different from its big tech rivals.
