US engineers have created a robot to assemble furniture by voice commands
Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed an innovative robot capable of assembling furniture from reusable building blocks - voxels. It can be controlled by voice commands.
The machine generates a 3D model of the object using artificial intelligence trained on images from the Internet. This model is then translated into coordinates for placing voxels. These are assembled by the robot using its robotic arm, which is equipped with self-correcting mechanisms to precisely align each block.
According to the results, the robot is capable of creating both functional furniture - chairs and shelves - and abstract shapes such as figures or letters. The unique system also opens up the possibility of using different materials, including wood and metal.
According to the authors of the project, this robot demonstrates how artificial intelligence can not only understand commands but also turn them into a tangible reality, revolutionizing the idea of manufacturing. In the future, the researchers intend to improve the system by adding the ability to work with multiple materials

Scientists have created superhuman vision for robots based on radio signals
Scientists from the University of Pennsylvania have presented a new technology that allows robots to see in conditions where traditional sensors are ineffective. The system is called PanoRadar.
The development uses radio signals to create detailed 3D images of the surrounding world even in difficult conditions. Unlike robots that rely on cameras or lidar, which don't work in bad weather, PanoRada
