A robotic arm is a type of mechanical arm, usually programmable, with similar functions to a human arm; the arm may be the sum total of the mechanism or may be part of a more complex robot. The links of such a manipulator are connected by joints allowing either rotational motion (such as in an articulated robot ) or translational (linear ...
e-NABLE is a distributed, open source community that creates and shares open source designs for assistive devices. It is known for creating the first 3D printable prosthetic hand and sharing the designs and code for bioelectric limbs.
Amber is an ARM-compatible 32-bit RISC processor. Amber implements the ARMv2 instruction set. LEON, a 32-bit, SPARC-like CPU created by the European Space Agency; OpenPOWER, based on IBM's POWER8 and newer multicore processor designs; OpenSPARC, a series of open-source microprocessors based on the UltraSPARC T1 and UltraSPARC T2 multicore ...
Robot Shalu is a homemade social and educational humanoid robot [1] [2] developed by Dinesh Kunwar Patel, [3] [4] an Indian Kendriya Vidyalaya Computer Science teacher from Mumbai. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] It was built using waste materials [ 7 ] [ 8 ] and can speak 47 languages, including 9 Indian and 38 foreign languages.
William Pollard never designed or built his arm, but it was a base for other inventors in the future. [3] In 1961 the Unimate was invented, evolving to the PUMA arm. In 1963, the Rancho arm was designed, along with many others in the future. Even though Joseph Engelberger marketed Unimate, George Devol invented the robotic arm.
Valkyrie, a humanoid robot, [1] from NASA. A humanoid robot is a robot resembling the human body in shape. The design may be for functional purposes, such as interacting with human tools and environments, for experimental purposes, such as the study of bipedal locomotion, or for other purposes. In general, humanoid robots have a torso, a head ...
Ai-Da can be displayed in either a standing or seated position; although it has legs, it cannot walk. [12] A pair of cameras in the robot's eyes allow the robot to both make eye contact and, in conjunction with a computer vision algorithm and a modified robotic arm, create sketches of the robot's surroundings.

Nanoid robotics, or for short, nanorobotics or nanobotics, is an emerging technology field creating machines or robots, which are called nanorobots or simply nanobots, whose components are at or near the scale of a nanometer (10 −9 meters).
