A bioinspired robotic eye could inspire the next generation of autonomous vehicles, drones and industrial robots.

The compound eyes of the humble fruit fly are a marvel of nature. They are wide-angle and can process visual information ...

Many robots are equipped with cameras to allow them to see the world. These digital eyes record sequences of still images which must somehow be interpreted as motion. A popular approach is optical ...

Robots and self-driving cars could soon benefit from a new kind of brain-inspired hardware that can allegedly detect movement and react faster than a human. A new study published in the journal Nature ...

It takes more than words to cure a lonely heart. Scientists have discovered that adding music to a robot's repertoire makes it feel more lifelike and emotionally supportive.

The breakthrough builds on neuromorphic engineering, a field that designs hardware modeled after the human brain. Unlike traditional processors, which separate memory and computation, neuromorphic ...

Loneliness has a critical impact on the mental health of citizens, particularly among the elderly. Robots capable of perceiving and responding to ...
