Multi-fingered robotic hands hold an immense potential for flexible manipulation in human environments. From using tools like scissors to preparing food, handling cloth, and robustly tying shoelaces, many mundane activities are […]

Robotic surgery is entering an exciting new era where robots are no longer simply mechanical tools under the direct control of a surgeon, but rather fully-fledged cyber-physical systems capable of […]

The Robotics Startup Bootcamp, hosted by MassRobotics, is an immersive, full-day workshop designed to equip early-stage robotics startups — or those considering the commercialization of their research — with the […]

Our workshop aims to facilitate discussion on construction robotics with an emphasis on perception and navigation in cluttered scenes, mapping of as-built environments, and safety-focused robot-worker interactions. This workshop will […]

When you think about a robot, what comes to mind? A humanoid, quadruped, quadcopter, or a multi-degree of freedom robot arm? These standard robot morphologies have become widely commercialized and […]

Achieving robust autonomy in robotics is challenged by sensor data reliability, especially in extreme environments. Conventional sensors like RGB cameras fail in low-visibility conditions (e.g., smoke, fog, low light), while […]

Vascular diseases are leading causes of ischemic heart disease and stroke and lead to significant global mortality. Endovascular interventions, such as neuroendovascular and cardiovascular interventions are a minimally invasive approach […]

The field of robotics has experienced significant growth through the integration of machine learning models, particularly with the rise of foundation models, neuro-symbolic AI, generative models (such as large language […]

This workshop explores the potential of Rust programming language in addressing current challenges in robotics software development. Bringing together industry leaders, academics, and open-source contributors, the workshop will cover Rust's […]

Surveying biotic and abiotic factors in the Earth's system is vital for addressing sustainability, climate change, and biodiversity loss. However, collecting comprehensive ecological data at relevant scales remains challenging, as […]

Emerging robotic exoskeletons have the potential to enhance performance of non-disabled users, restore normative leg biomechanics to impaired users, or rehabilitate limb function after neurological disorders. However, these devices have […]
