It’s all in the wrist: energy-efficient robot hand learns how not to drop the ball

17 April 2023

Researchers have designed a low-cost, energy-efficient robotic hand that can grasp a range of objects – and not drop them – using just the movement of its wrist and the feeling in its ‘skin’. Grasping objects of different sizes, shapes and textures is a problem that is easy for a human, but challenging for a robot...

Taste of the future: robot chef learns to ‘taste as you go’

17 May 2022

'If robots are to be used for certain aspects of food preparation, it’s important that they are able to ‘taste’ what they’re cooking.' Grzegorz Sochacki Agriforwards CDT student, Greg Sochacki, who works on his PhD research in colalboration with Beko, presented his research in 'Frontiers of Robotics and AI' journal. The...
