Engineers at Harvard have developed a new method to design robotic joints that mimic the human knee, potentially making robots more efficient and grippers stronger. The approach uses rolling contact ...

Joints in humanoid robots endure load combinations that require precision components. Oftentimes this means custom bearing solutions. Modern bearing selection takes into account the complete system ...

[Tim] needed very small, motorized joints for a robot. Unable to find anything to fit the bill, he designed his own tiny, robotic joints. Not only are these articulated and motorized, they are ...

The next time you see someone doing the dance "The robot," it might not be accurate in the world of modern robotics. Scientists at the University of Sussex, the University of Belgrade, and the ...

Robotic arms, also called industrial robots, are also referred to as mechanical arms. These are devices whose functionality is the same as that of human hands. They have several joints which enable ...

WILKES-BARRE — Ken Stella was at work in Friedman Electric Supply’s offices last week, much as he has been for the past two decades. Nothing unusual about that, perhaps — except when you consider that ...

Nikon has announced the expansion of its robotic joint C3 eMotion intelligent actuator unit range. Each unit combines vital robotic joint component such as a motor, speed reducer, motor driver, brake ...
