Their build is a small robotic platform that they assembled for their ECE5730 final project. The tiny wheeled robot is programmed to rotate on the spot until its infrared sensors pick up a signal.

Sphero has announced another rolling ball robot called the Sphero BOLT. The Sphero BOLT follows in the company’s ethos of having a commitment to education-based products, but comes with some ...

[Stefan] beefed up the robot with a BNO055 module to determine orientation, an APDS-9930 proximity sensor, as well as four CNY70 IR proximity sensors on the bottom, used for line-following.

Different models may include additional sensors (such as a dust scanner to see how much dust is being picked up), but those are the basic sensors that all robotic vacuums include. The path of the ...

Force/torque (F/T) sensors are critical components of robot systems used for assembly, test, and other applications. Sensor systems help robots verify part insertion, apply a constant force during ...

Now, researchers at MIT and Northeastern University have incorporated it into an ultra-sensitive tactile sensor for robots. Three years ago, we first heard about GelSight – an experimental new ...
