This category covers robots that act with varying degrees of autonomy, including humanoid machines and coordinated swarms. Advances matter as robotics moves into settings that require flexible interaction, collaboration, or operation at scale.
Autonomous underwater vehicles are uncrewed submersible robots that operate underwater without continuous direct control from a human operator.
Humanoid robots are robots designed with a human-like body form, often to operate in environments built for people.
Soft robotics grippers are robotic end effectors made with flexible or deformable structures to grasp and handle objects.
Solid-state lidar uses laser light to measure distance without relying on a conventional rotating scanning assembly.
Swarm robotics studies groups of robots that coordinate and act collectively, often through decentralized control.
Visual SLAM navigation uses camera imagery to estimate a device’s position while building or updating a map of its surroundings.
