The system allows robots to rely on internal motion sensors when they can’t see clearly. In real-world tests, it kept robots moving safely through tough conditions like stairs, low light and smoke. *** When a drone [...] The post Keeping Robots Moving in Extreme Environments appeared first on Robotics Institute Carnegie Mellon University .
