Robotics | MIT News | Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT researchers “speak objects into existence” using AI and robotics The speech-to-reality system combines 3D generative AI and robotic assembly to create objects on demand December 5, 2025 Read full story
Robot, know thyself: New vision-based system teaches . . . - MIT News A 3D-printed robotic arm holds a pencil as it trains using random movements and a single camera — part of a new control system called Neural Jacobian Fields (NJF) Rather than relying on sensors or hand-coded models, NJF allows robots to learn how their bodies move in response to motor commands purely from visual observation, offering a pathway to more flexible, affordable, and self-aware
A new model offers robots precise pick-and-place solutions Pick-and-place machines are a type of automated equipment used to place objects into structured, organized locations These machines are used for a variety of applications — from electronics assembly to packaging, bin picking, and even inspection — but many current pick-and-place solutions are limited Current solutions lack “precise generalization,” or the ability to solve many tasks
Robotic probe quickly measures key properties of new materials An MIT robotic probe quickly measures photoconductance in new semiconductor materials By dramatically increasing the speed at which scientists can characterize these materials, this system could spur the development of solar panels that produce more electricity
Robotic hand can identify objects with just one grasp MIT-developed soft-rigid robotic fingers incorporate powerful sensors along their entire length, enabling them to produce a robotic hand that could accurately identify objects after only one grasp
Eldercare robot helps people sit and stand, and catches them if they . . . MIT engineers built E-BAR, a mobile robot designed to physically support the elderly and prevent them from falling as they move around their homes E-BAR acts as a set of robotic handlebars that follows a person from behind, allowing them to walk independently or lean on the robot’s arms for support
