Robots are delivering to-go orders in cities like Atlanta, Chicago and Dallas. Are we embracing them too quickly — and are they actually helpful?
When a robotics pioneer who has spent decades building humanoid machines recommends that you stand at least nine feet away from any full-sized walking robot, you should probably listen.
Picture a robot controlled by micromotors so small and light that it suspends itself over water like a bug. With engineers at the University of Virginia, that’s now an achievable reality.
You could be forgiven if you didn’t know the meaning of every word the tweens and teens in your life are using. With terms like “skibidi,” “6-7” and “41” becoming unavoidable for teachers and parents, ...
