"I bought a new laptop at the store and asked them to copy my photos and documents from the old one. No one contacted me when it was done. Found out later they did not copy the data to my new computer and I could not access the files on my old one. I had to take it to the Lancaster store where they immediately solved the access problem and copied my files from the old laptop to the new one. Crappy service at the Reynoldsburg store"

"I bought a range oven from them, and had it delivered and installed. Days later my house still smelled like gas. I called their customer service line to have someone look at it, and the lady told me to call my gas company to have them turn off my gas until their team could get there 2 WEEKS LATER. She said that was the earliest appointment and I was just going to have to deal with it (almost all my appliances and heat are gas, so excuse me?) Giving it a 2 star because the sales reps were cool and got my delivery date relatively quickly. I could understand if a burner wasn't working, but a gas leak? What an absolutely insane phone call."
A vision-based control system called Neural Jacobian Fields enables soft and rigid robots to learn self-supervised motion control using only a monocular camera. The system, developed by MIT CSAIL researchers, combines 3D scene reconstruction with embodied representation and closed-loop control.
The word “robot” was coined by the Czech writer Karel Čapek in a 1920 play called Rossum’s Universal Robots, and is derived from the Czech robota, meaning “drudgery” or “servitude”.
A hopping, insect-sized robot can jump over gaps or obstacles, traverse rough, slippery, or slanted surfaces, and perform aerial acrobatic maneuvers, while using a fraction of the energy required for flying microbots.
Robot, know thyself: New vision-based system teaches machines to understand their bodies Neural Jacobian Fields, developed by MIT CSAIL researchers, can learn to control any robot from a single camera, without any other sensors.
MIT roboticists developed a way to cut through data noise and help robots focus on the features in a scene that are most relevant for assisting humans. The system could be used in smart manufacturing and warehouse settings where robots would work alongside and assist humans.
MIT researchers developed a powerful system that could help robots safely navigate unpredictable environments using only images captured from their onboard cameras.
SPROUT is a flexible robot built by MIT Lincoln Laboratory and Notre Dame researchers to assist in disaster response. Emergency responders can use the robot to navigate and map areas under rubble to plan rescue operations.
The robot can support the person’s full weight, lifting them from sitting to standing and vice versa along a natural trajectory. And the arms of the robot can catch them by rapidly inflating side airbags if they begin to fall.
Robots are helping humans in a growing number of places – from archaeological sites to disaster zones and sewers. The most recent robotic inventions can entertain people in care homes and squeeze into small spaces. Robotics engineers are among the top 20 job types on a growth trajectory, according to the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2025.
A new system enables a robot to “think ahead” and consider thousands of potential motion plans simultaneously, allowing the robot to solve a multistep problem in a few seconds.
