CMU Collaborates on Project To Develop Future Robotic Wheelchair
Carnegie Mellon researchers will collaborate on a federally funded project to wholly rethink and redesign wheelchairs to incorporate new technologies and offer greater mobility.
New Model Helps Robots See in 3D
The Breakdown: Researchers developed a model that converts data into precise 3D maps. Trained on real-world scenes, the model captures both small details and large spaces with high precision. The research moves robotics closer to human-like spatial reasoning. *** Researchers from the Carnegie Mellon University[...]
