Robotics

Engineers have long sought materials that can change their mechanical behavior depending on the situation. In robotics and protective equipment, the challenge is clear:...

Soft robots are often seen as a promising solution for operating in delicate or constrained environments, but they come with a key limitation: movement....

Written by Or Shalom The Milipol TechX Summit (MTX) 2026, which opened on April 28th, 2026, at the Sands Expo Convention Center in Singapore, marks...

Robots are often limited by the very components that power them. Traditional electric motors provide strength and precision, but they also add weight, rigidity,...

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) operate in an environment that is constantly shifting. Sudden currents, turbulence and pressure changes can destabilize rigid wings and control...

Robots designed to detect and track chemical sources, such as gas leaks, explosives, or hazardous materials, typically rely on multiple sensors working in perfect...

Robotic systems designed for remote or extreme environments face a consistent limitation: power. Movement alone can consume a significant portion of a robot’s energy,...

Naval forces have long faced a persistent challenge: maintenance delays that keep critical vessels out of operation for extended periods. Inspections of hulls, decks,...

For mobile robots operating in the real world, knowing their exact position is not optional. Autonomous navigation depends on continuous, accurate localization. Yet satellite-based...

As humanoid robots become more advanced, one of the key challenges is making their interactions feel natural. Accurately recognizing faces, tracking expressions and reproducing...

Autonomous robots still struggle with a basic problem that animals solve effortlessly: how to keep moving when conditions suddenly change. Uneven terrain, loss of...

As robots take on more complex roles in industrial environments, one challenge remains constant: ensuring safe, seamless interaction with human workers. Heavy-duty robotic arms...

Conventional robots rely on motors, batteries and processors to move and react. While effective, these components add weight, complexity and potential points of failure...

Modern militaries continue to search for reconnaissance tools that can operate where drones and ground robots struggle — inside collapsed buildings, narrow tunnels or...

As connected devices multiply, wireless networks face a growing mathematical bottleneck. Future 6G systems are expected to support device densities more than ten times...

Firefighting in industrial sites, disaster zones, and remote environments often exposes crews to extreme heat, toxic smoke, and unstable structures. While remotely controlled unmanned...

Small drones and mobile robots increasingly operate in tight, cluttered environments where awareness must be both wide and fast. Conventional camera systems can capture...

Robots are getting better at sensing their surroundings, but moving safely through unfamiliar spaces remains a bottleneck. Most autonomous systems still depend on building...

Major international sporting events present a unique security challenge. Large crowds, unfamiliar visitors, confined urban spaces, and heightened global attention create conditions where even...

One of the persistent limitations of robotic manipulation is reach. Even highly dexterous robotic arms are constrained by their fixed mounting points, forcing complex...

Ground forces increasingly face small, fast-moving threats at close range—whether hostile personnel, light vehicles, or unmanned systems. Conventional weapons can address these risks, but...

Modern autonomous systems depend heavily on continuous communication. Drone swarms, robotic teams, and distributed AI agents typically exchange data wirelessly to coordinate movement, share...
