Despite decades of progress, most robots are still programmed for specific, repetitive tasks. They struggle with the unexpected and can't adapt to new situations without painstaking reprogramming. But ...

At UC Berkeley, researchers in Sergey Levine's Robotic AI and Learning Lab eyed a table where a tower of 39 Jenga blocks ...

A team of researchers from TU Wein has developed a self-learning robot to complete simple tasks like cleaning washbasins.

Scientists at the University of Maryland and NICTA, Australia are working on ways for robots to learn how to cook by watching YouTube videos.

Researchers working on the RoboEarth project demonstrate a robot’s ability to learn and cooperate with other robotic systems to serve medical patients. The project uses cloud computing to teach robots ...

Discover how reinforcement learning is transforming quadruped robots like Spot into agile, adaptable tools for real-world applications.

First, the robots move like babies before they learn to walk. Roboticist Josh Bongard thought it would be better to design a robot that can adapt, rather than program it so it gets stuck in its ways.

We've seen robot dogs run up hills with luggage, and help fight fires. Now, researchers at Switzerland's ETH Zurich are ...
