OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol advanced another step toward general availability on July 6 when an OpenAI Codex engineer publicly confirmed that Sol Ultra — the model's highest-compute tier — would ship inside ...

Abstract: With the rise of autonomous systems (AS) and agentic artificial intelligence (AI), a heightened automation of testing processes is required to build, deploy, or repair reliable intelligent ...

Abstract: This paper presents a cooperative control framework for dual-arm robots that integrates vision-language models (VLMs) with online reinforcement learning (RL) to enhance autonomy and ...

The race to commercialize physical AI and autonomous robots is running into a fundamental challenge: existing robot safety frameworks were designed for deterministic systems operating in controlled ...

It’s great to have a robot vacuum that can help you sweep your floors. But as useful as they might be, they’re not designed to tackle wet messes like spills or your dog’s muddy paw prints. A robotic ...

Is it time to swap your lawn guy for a robot mower? After testing top-rated mowers from Segway and Eufy, I discovered that performance is only part of the story. I’ve contributed to PCMag since 2019, ...

[Brandon Lai] is hoping to build a humanoid robot. To that end, he’s going to need some actuators, and decided to design his own. His second pass at this turned out pretty well, with a few snags found ...

Nvidia just built a system that lets AI agents walk into a robot lab and figure out how to teach the robots themselves. No human hand-holding, no step-by-step programming. Just coding agents, robotic ...

During a recent testing session with the swing robot, we observed two drivers produce ball speeds that differed by two-tenths of a mile per hour. On a launch monitor, that's essentially the same ball ...

The pool of 2026 robot vacuums so far is significantly more diverse than it has been in years past. Previously, it's been the same old battle of suction power or a corner cleaning competition between ...

With top performance across two global challenges at ICRA 2026, vivo demonstrates the robustness and transferability of its robotics capabilities in real-world environments. SHENZHEN, China, June 11, ...

Waymo has chosen Arizona to test the first commercial, driverless taxi service, called Waymo One. Waymo is expanding its presence in Arizona with a large land purchase northwest of Phoenix. The ...
