This setup gives the robot an operational reach of up to 2 meters (6.6 ft), which it can use for tasks like grasping and carrying objects, pressing buttons such as those in elevators, and swiping card ...

After three months of testing Roborock's ambitious Saros Z70, its headline-grabbing robotic arm is still just a proof of concept. Ajay has worked in tech journalism for over a decade as a reporter, ...

Tired of watching cool robotics projects online and feeling like they’re out of your reach? You’re not alone. Many enthusiasts face the challenge of turning their tech dreams into reality. But what if ...

While not 100% hands-free, it's miles ahead of where robot vacuums were only a few years ago.

Robot arms do not come for free. The Saros Z70 is a very expensive robovac, and there are performance penalties too; the arm takes up space that could otherwise have been used for a bigger dustbin or ...

Over the past decades, roboticists have introduced a wide range of systems that can effectively tackle some real-world problems. Most of these robots, however, often perform poorly on tasks that they ...

London’s W1 is somewhere to go if you’ve got too much money to spend on something. Within minutes of each other, you can visit the city’s priciest private doctor, buy a Steinway and a pair of designer ...
