Firstpost: European scientists have engineered artificial skins and sensor technologies to augment "sensitivity" in robots, says a study.
The new capabilities, and a production system for building touch-sensitivity into different robots, will improve the way robots work in unconstrained settings, as well as their ability to communicate and cooperate with each other and with humans, reports Science Daily.
Police can strap bombs to robots to thwart bad guys in emergency situations.
The robots still can't operate without the help of an actual server and look to assist employees instead of replacing them.
