Chinese robotics player LimX Dynamics has unveiled LimX COSA, an operating system designed for ...

Ever heard about the Robot Operating System? It’s a BSD-licensed open-source system for controlling robots, from a variety of hardware. Over the years we’ve shared quite a few projects that run ROS, ...

Robotics engineering is a multidisciplinary field including electrical, mechanical, and computer engineering. It deals with designing, building, operating, and engineering robots and robotic systems ...

In a world of ever-evolving robots, some of you might remember the one that more or less started it all: the Honda-made Asimo, a humanoid robot that broke cover back in the year 2000 at the CES show ...

Earlier this year, Microsoft and Open Robotics' Robot Operating System (ROS) was made generally available. The open source robotics framework allows for the development of robotics software, ...

Many companies are focused on building robots, or the hardware components to help them move, grip objects, or interact with the world around them. Silicon Valley-based OpenMind is focused under the ...

If you are like us, you probably just spin up your own code for a lot of simple projects. But that’s wasteful if you are trying to do anything serious. Take a robot, for example. Are you using ROS ...

When the internal combustion engine became reliable and dropped in price in the early 20th century, the technology began to see broad adoption both inside and outside transportation. Engines were used ...

Tim Jin (MSR '21) reflects on his independent project for Northwestern Engineering's Master of Science in Robotics (MSR) program and what he learned from trying to make a robot emulate a chameleon. As ...

Eight years ago, Morgan Quigley, Eric Berger and Andrew Ng published a paper that was not about ROS. It was about STAIR, the STanford Artificial Intelligence Robot, which used a library called ...

First released in 2007 by two Stanford PhD students who observed their colleague’s lack of entry into the robotics field, the Robot Operating System (ROS) was developed to be a distributed and modular ...
