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 surroundings in a way that’s similar to humans. The results are reported in the journal Science Robotics.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 surroundings in a way that’s similar to humans.

A team of engineers, AI specialists and chip design researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences has designed, built and tested what they are describing as the first AI-based chip design system. The group has published a paper describing their system, called QiMeng, on the arXiv preprint server.A team of engineers, AI specialists and chip design researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences has designed, built and tested what they are describing as the first AI-based chip design system.

Art restoration takes steady hands and a discerning eye. For centuries, conservators have restored paintings by identifying areas needing repair, then mixing an exact shade to fill in one area at a time. Often, a painting can have thousands of tiny regions requiring individual attention. Restoring a single painting can take anywhere from a few weeks to over a decade.Art restoration takes steady hands and a discerning eye.

Over the past decades, roboticists have developed increasingly advanced systems that can emulate some human capabilities and effectively tackle various real-world tasks. To reliably grasp, manipulate and utilize objects in their surroundings, robots should be able to detect and process tactile information, replicating the processes underpinning the human sense of touch.Over the past decades, roboticists have developed increasingly advanced systems that can emulate some human capabilities and effectively tackle various real-world tasks.
