At ETH Zurich's Robotic Systems Lab, engineers have created ANYmal-D, a four-legged robot that can play badminton with people. This project brings together robotics, artificial intelligence and sports ...

We've seen robot dogs run up hills with luggage, and help fight fires. Now, researchers at Switzerland's ETH Zurich are putting these mechanical mutts through their paces on the badminton court, ...

A team at ETH Zurich has demonstrated an AI-powered legged robot capable of autonomously playing badminton against human opponents. Using a control system based on reinforcement learning, the robot ...

Meet ANYmal, a four-legged dog-like robot designed by researchers at ETH Zürich in Switzerland, in hopes of using such robots for search-and-rescue on building sites or disaster areas, among other ...

Just when you thought you'd seen it all, ANYmal, the quadrupedal robot developed by ETH Zurich and commercialized by ANYbotics, is back to creep us out a bit, this time by conquering ladders. This ...

Robots like Atlas, Spot, and Stretch have amazed people with natural, life-like agility and body balance. What they were lacking, though, was a way to quickly connect this natural movement to ...

The quadrupedal robot ANYmal went back to school and has learned a lot. Researchers used machine learning to teach it new skills: the robot can now climb over obstacles and successfully negotiate ...
