We have seen robots working alongside humans in so many movies. We also dream that someday such human companion robots will come into the market. These robots will not only assist us in the day to day activities but be a great companion as well.

Boston Dynamics is an American robot making company. Their creation, Atlas has taken them one step closer to replicating humans.

Robots that clean your floors. Lights that turn off when you’re not home. These new inventions might seem like something from the 1960s cartoon “The Jetsons,” but automated technologies are not a thing of the future, anymore.

Japanese firm is building a quarter size transformer robot that can walk and drive at a great speed. Built around a special operating system, this robot is giving hope to the team, and they are intent on building the full scale transformer in 2020.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) was a notion for lab researchers a decade or so ago. Today, each of us has a little part of AI in our handsets in the form of Siri, or Cortana or some other AI-based service. Stephen Hawking, the notable physicist, has now warned against the AI.

Autistic children can be very shy in their interactions and engaging their interest at school can be tough. But Topcliffe Primary in Birmingham is doing an excellent job at this by using two friendly robots. These robots can have conversations with autistic kids and play games as well.

There might be very few sectors in which robots have not stepped into. And now it seems that very soon we will see robots in every sectors. However, some computer scientists at Harvard University are now creating a crew of tiny robots that would be able to build houses autonomously.

Convoys are one of the most vulnerable and dangerous duties of the ground troops in most wars. To resolve this, Lockheed Martin in collaboration with a U.S. Army research center has unveiled fully automated military vehicles.

Foxconn is one of the key parts of Apple's Asia-based supply chain. The manufacturer had earlier stated plans of employing robotic arms on the assembly line to automate the process. And now, it seems that the company is living up to those plans, reports Wall Street Journal.

Due to significant advancements in artificial intelligence, we have recently seen such robots which can perform many tasks just like human. But researchers at University of Illinois are taking things a step further as they have created 'bio-bots' made from actual heart cells and hydrogels.
