An autonomous tractor with three different steering modes can drive in straight lines, make efficient turns, and shift modes in response to what it sees as it navigates through an olive grove.

High-bandwidth communication between drones and ground robots is the key to enhancing urban safety and emergency response, according to an international research project.

Startups are looking to develop self-driving cargo delivery vehicles that can improve delivery times, cut emissions, and mitigate skilled-worker shortages.

Drones, UAVs, and UASs are quickly becoming ubiquitous around ships and harbors as they are harnessed for inspection, environmental concerns, and delivery.

To optimize autonomous underwater vehicles, researchers have developed a buoyancy control device that uses reverse electrolysis to alter a vehicle's overall volume.

In this episode of ASME TechCast, listen to a discussion about how artificial intelligence can make sense of the torrent of data streaming from industrial sensors.

A flexible self-steering robotic needle can access and retrieve hard-to-reach lung tissue in vivo, which could be game-changing for treatment of lung cancer.

Railway companies increasingly adopt artificial intelligence to improve operations and attract customers looking for trains that are on time and safe to ride.

Researchers discover that transcranial electric stimulation helps strengthen training done in virtual reality.

The risks of research beneath the ice have led to the development and testing of innovative solutions like the Saab Sabertooth autonomous underwater vessel.

Traditional inspection methods fall short in planes made from fiber-reinforced polymers. A new method using wave propagation may find subsurface damage.
