The ADIS16355 inertial sensor from Analog Devices Inc., Norwood, Mass., compensates for GPS signal loss that arises in moving trucks and other vehicles. Besides aiding navigation, the sensor can help ...

Imperial College spin-out Slamcore is developing artificial intelligence based tools to help robots both map their environment and navigate through it – ‘slam’ in the name comes from ‘simultaneous ...

Robot navigation systems can be complicated to design — they need software algorithms, electronics, and mechanical components. They must be able to move accurately, and they need sensors to gather ...

The UM442 can simultaneously track GPS, BDS, GLONASS and Galileo. It also supports SBAS and QZSS. It uses Uncore’s new-generation Nebulas II chip and UGypsophila real-time kinematic (RTK) algorithm.

Robotiq says it has combined adaptive gripping with high-frequency tactile sensing, enabling robots to generalize across objects.

A strap-down inertial-navigation system uses silicon sensors to measure displacement without entailing the bulk and expense of moving parts or GPS receivers. For example, a three-axis accelerometer ...

Humanoid robots are quickly moving from sci-fi prototypes to real-world industrial tools, and Wall Street is paying attention. In a ...

In nature, fish are known for their advanced swimming capabilities and have been shown to demonstrate excellent agility, maneuverability, and efficiency. While there are a number of robotic systems ...

Inertial Sense has released a new micro-sized inertial navigation system (INS) with precise real-time-kinematic (RTK)-level accuracy. The company says the new solution paves the way for high accuracy ...
