Figure 1: “Interactive Fleet Learning” (IFL) refers to robot fleets in industry and academia that fall back on human teleoperators when necessary and continually learn from them over time. In the last few years we have seen an excitin… Commercial and industrial deployments of robot fleets: package delivery (top left), food delivery (bottom left), …
The three-fingered robotic gripper can “feel” with great sensitivity along the full length of each finger – not just at the tips. MIT researchers developed a soft-rigid robotic finger that incorporates powerful sensors along its entire length, enabling them to produce a robotic hand that could accurately identify objects after only one grasp. Image: …

Yes, you heard that correctly: the goal is permanent airtime. Robotic flies roaming a room in RoboHouse with no human guidance – achieved within six months. In the future, 24/7 swarms like these may revolutionise aircraft inspection. Imagine a fighter jet enveloped by hundreds of nano drones that build-up a detailed picture in minutes. It’s …
