The robots are coming for the last human warehouse jobs. Loading and unloading a truck is backbreaking, mind-numbing work that retailers and parcel carriers have tried to solve for years.

Technology breakthroughs are allowing DHL and other companies to automate the laborious, injury-prone work of loading and unloading.

Despite the empty pledges, the promises kept coming. Last year in January, Musk said, “Next year for sure, we’ll have over a million robotaxis.” High stakes Reaching a million may take awhile, but ...

This paper presents a hybrid tele-manipulation system, comprising of a sensorized 3-D-printed soft robotic gripper and a soft fabric-based haptic glove that aim at improving grasping manipulation and ...
