The ability to give sight to a blind person via a bionic eye depends on the circumstances surrounding the loss of sight. For retinal prostheses, which are the most prevalent visual prosthetic under development (due to ease of access to the retina among other considerations), patients with vision loss due to degeneration of photoreceptors (retinitis pigmentosa, choroideremia, geographic atrophy ...
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.

There is a body of feature films, mainly live-action, featuring powered exoskeletons. [note 1] Popular Mechanics said the growth of visual effects at the start of the 21st century allowed for such exoskeletons to be featured more prominently in live-action films. [1]
ABB has bought a company specialising in boosting the mobility of industrial robots - by using artificial intelligence and 3D vision to move around factories and warehouses. The deal to buy ...
The only thing better than one robot is two robots. Roborock’s Saros Z70 made its debut at the 2025 CES, the first robotic vacuum and mop hybrid with a retractable robotic arm that extends out ...
Finch is a 2021 American post-apocalyptic survival film directed by Miguel Sapochnik and written by Craig Luck and Ivor Powell. [1] The film stars Tom Hanks and Caleb Landry Jones. The story follows an aging man named Finch, a survivor in a now nearly uninhabitable Earth, who builds and teaches a robot to take care of his dog when he dies.
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 ...
The mathematics developed over the past centuries for designing rigid bodies generally fail to extend to soft robots. Thus, soft robots are commonly designed in part with the help of automated design tools, such as evolutionary algorithms, which enable a soft robot's shape, material properties, and controller to all be simultaneously and ...
