Atlas, Boston Dynamics’ dancing humanoid, can now use a single model for walking and grasping—a significant step toward ...

Inside these six-legged robots brains are maps of movement possibilities. With a limb disabled, the robot tries to walk according to its previous pattern.

How robots could run and walk like animals and humans Robots are helping perform surgeries in the operating room, catching the journalism bug and even working on late-night TV.

Researchers at Google Brain and the University of California, Berkeley have developed an AI system that taught a quadrupedal robot how to walk from scratch.

Learning to walk in two hours may not be quite deer levels of learning-to-walk efficiency, but it’s a far cry from engineers having to explicitly program how a robot is usually taught to maneuver.

Facebook AI researchers have trained robots how to walk and be curious about the physical world and given them a sense of touch.

Like a newborn animal, a four-legged robot stumbles around during its first walking attempts. But while a foal or a giraffe needs much longer to master walking, the robot learns to move forward ...

Created by researchers at the University of Oslo, DyRET (Dynamic Robot for Embodied Testing) is a quadruped robot which has learned how to walk on its own. The results may look clumsy, but there's ...

Researchers show how their multilegged walking robot can be steered by inducing a dynamic instability. By making the couplings between segments more flexible, the robot changes from walking ...

Walking is hard, and what's hard for humans is equally confounding for robots. But with the help of machine learning, a robot learned to walk in just a few hours—a good 12 months faster than the ...

A group of Google researchers have built a robot capable of learning to walk by itself with minimal human intervention. The researchers used a kind of AI called deep reinforcement learning to ...

New ‘Paleo-Robots’ Could Shed Light on Animal Evolution, Revealing How Some Fish Evolved to ‘Walk’ on Land A team of roboticists, paleontologists and biologists are building robots to ...
