I study human-robot interaction. Specifically I’m interested in how we can get robots to better learn from humans in the way ...

This paper presents an unsupervised deep-learning method for controlling dexterous robotic hands by mimicking human hand motions. We introduce a cross-domain similarity metric to capture the spatial ...

Better than a human The human hand can adapt to many tasks. But Gunderman thinks one day the robotic hand could be better at picking blackberries.

When Google DeepMind wanted a robotic hand for their latest project in AI machine learning, they turned to Shadow Robot. This latest creation isn’t just one of the most sensitive and dexterous robotic ...

Researchers Create Most Human-Like Robot Skin Yet. Scientists have developed a robotic skin that mimics human touch. The innovative skin is made of a soft, conductive gelatine-based hydrogel ...

Imagine a robot outfitted with this sensory skin. It could pick up on small details, like the firmness of a handshake or the warmth of someone’s hand, and adjust its response in real-time. This kind ...

This soft, stretchable material acts like a glove that can be placed over robotic hands, allowing machines to feel heat, pressure, pain, and more—all using just one type of sensor.

Researchers create most human-like robot skin yet A hydrogel-based hand was poked, prodded, burned, and slashed to help robots 'feel.' Mack DeGeurin Jun 12, 2025 5:06 PM EDT ...

Tesla is suing Proception, alleging theft of Optimus robot hand designs by a former employee.

Scientists have developed a low-cost, durable, highly-sensitive robotic ‘skin’ that can be added to robotic hands like a glove, enabling robots to detect information about their ...
