Stanford researchers have developed an innovative computer vision model that recognizes the real-world functions of objects, ...

Scientists at Duke University have developed a robotic hand with four fingers that can recognize the material and shape of an object by the vibrations it makes when it touches it. The system, called ...

The object recognition test is now among the most commonly used behavioral tests for mice. A mouse is presented with two similar objects during the first session, and then one of the two objects is ...

Visual object recognition is foundational to processes of categorization, tool use, and real-world problem solving. Despite considerable effort across many disciplines and many specific advances, ...

This research aims to realize a service to convey haptic information that is hard to represent by video and sound, such as the hardness or texture of an object. As part of it, we developed a haptic ...

Shape-from-shading (SFS) is a computer vision technique that draws upon light and shadow patterns to reconstruct an object's ...

Fig. 1. Design and fabrication of a multiphoton neuron tactile skin. (a) The design concept and spatial reconstruction workflow of the multiphotonic neuron haptic skin for simulating the tactile ...

Researchers have provided the first empirical evidence that the way in which dogs relate words to objects is fundamentally different to humans. Many pet owners marvel at their dog's ability to fetch ...
