Designed to ensure safer skies, “Air-Guardian” blends human intuition with machine precision, creating a more symbiotic relationship between pilot and aircraft.

Robotic arm equipped with a hairbrush helps with brushing tasks and could be an asset in assistive-care settings.

Robotic gripper with soft sensitive fingers developed at MIT CSAIL can handle cables with unprecedented dexterity.

In a pair of papers from MIT CSAIL, two teams enable better sense and perception for soft robotic grippers.

CSAIL's Conduct-A-Bot system uses muscle signals to cue a drone’s movement, enabling more natural human-robot communication.

Weather’s a problem for autonomous cars. MIT’s new system shows promise by using “ground-penetrating radar” instead of cameras or lasers.

Developed at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, robots can self-assemble to form various structures with applications including disaster relief.

Gripper device inspired by “origami magic ball” can grasp wide array of delicate and heavy objects.
