Imagine a coffee cup sitting on a table. Now, imagine a book partially obscuring the cup. As humans, we still know what the coffee cup is even though we can't see all of it. But a robot might be ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA -- Inspired by the human finger, MIT researchers have developed a robotic hand that uses high-resolution touch sensing to accurately identify an object after grasping it just one time.

A human clearing junk out of an attic can often guess the contents of a box simply by picking it up and giving it a shake, without the need to see what's inside. Researchers from MIT, Amazon Robotics, ...

While it excels at identifying objects, a task called semantic classification, it may struggle to recognize objects in new poses. This weakness quickly becomes a problem in situations like autonomous ...

(Nanowerk News) Robotic vision has come a long way, reaching a level of sophistication with applications in complex and demanding tasks, such as autonomous driving and object manipulation. However, it ...

As well as unveiling a wealth of AI features it has rolled out to its suite of image and video applications. Adobe also teased projects that it is currently working on perhaps for a future release. As ...

Upload astronomical images to Astrometry.net to identify objects. Use SIMBAD to find object properties and links to other databases. Explore Aladin to visualize and investigate surrounding objects.

Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed. Project Know How can identify and authenticate who a video or image belongs to — even if it’s been manipulated or ...

The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History will open a unique hands-on learning space, the Patrick F. Taylor Foundation Object Project, July 1. Made possible by philanthropist and education ...

Newly created soft-rigid robotic fingers incorporate powerful sensors along their entire length, enabling them to produce a robotic hand that could accurately identify objects after only one grasp.
