Teams talk about NLP – natural language processing – in test automation, yet many still ask what it truly means. They hear about tools that turn plain language into test scripts, but they want clear facts. This topic matters now because software teams face tight release cycles and constant change. NLP in test automation means […]
Unitree Robotics, which is believed to be the world’s largest humanoid robot maker, has taken a significant step toward going public, filing for an initial public offering on Shanghai’s STAR Market that could raise up to 4.2 billion yuan ($610 million). The Hangzhou-based company’s IPO application was formally accepted by the Shanghai Stock Exchange on […]
By the time you finish reading this sentence, another humanoid robot will have rolled off a production line somewhere in China. That is not hyperbole. On March 30, 2026, Shanghai-based Agibot announced it had produced its 10,000th humanoid robot – a milestone the company reached after scaling from 5,000 to 10,000 units in just three […]
A number of individuals have spoken about robotics with respect to heavy equipment. However, they typically consider autonomous mining vehicles, warehouse management systems, and construction machines. The majority of these individuals overlook an extremely obvious shift that is taking place in truck mounted cranes. Crane trucks are becoming smart due to the advent of new […]
Robots make work faster, cleaner, and more consistent. They also change how risk shows up on the floor. The danger is not only the moving arm, but also the in-between moments, when a cell is paused, a jam is cleared, or a quick adjustment turns into hands inside the fence. Operators sit closest to these […]
Researchers have created microscopic robots so small they’re barely visible, yet smart enough to sense, decide, and move completely on their own. Powered by light and equipped with tiny computers, the robots swim by manipulating electric fields rather than using moving parts. They can detect temperature changes, follow programmed paths, and even work together in groups. The breakthrough marks the first truly autonomous robots at this microscopic scale.
Vast amounts of valuable research data remain unused, trapped in labs or lost to time. Frontiers aims to change that with FAIR² Data Management, a groundbreaking AI-driven system that makes datasets reusable, verifiable, and citable. By uniting curation, compliance, peer review, and interactive visualization in one platform, FAIR² empowers scientists to share their work responsibly and gain recognition.
Artificial intelligence is consuming enormous amounts of energy, but researchers at the University of Florida have built a chip that could change everything by using light instead of electricity for a core AI function. By etching microscopic lenses directly onto silicon, they’ve enabled laser-powered computations that cut power use dramatically while maintaining near-perfect accuracy.
