MIT engineers built an ultrasound wristband that tracks 22 degrees of hand freedom with 120ms latency, enabling real-time robot hand and sign language control.
MIT researchers have developed a way to help people with amputation or paralysis regain limb control. Instead of using electricity to stimulate muscles, they used light. Here, Guillermo Herrera-Arcos ...
Swarms of drones flying in terrifyingly perfect formation could be one step closer, thanks to a control algorithm being developed at MIT. The complexities involved in controlling teams of moving ...
Artificial intelligence -- some fear it, some welcome it. New research from MIT shows that robots are not only more efficient than humans at controlling human workers, but that the workers prefer ...
MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) has come up with a use for virtual reality headsets that goes beyond firing them up, checking out a new game, muttering “cool” briefly ...
Given the state of our world, being able to escape to a chosen alternate reality through dreams sounds like a, er, dream. Luckily, scientists at MIT’s Media Lab have been working on a way to let ...
The new training method doesn't use sensors or onboard control tweaks, but a single camera that watches the robot's movements ...
The equipment in Ed Boyden’s lab at MIT is nothing if not eclectic. There are machines for analyzing and assembling genes; a 3-D printer; a laser cutter capable of carving an object out of a block of ...
