New encyclopedia categorizes robots by performance metrics

techxplore.com

Researchers at the Technical University of Munich have developed a new encyclopedia called the "Tree of Robots." This resource categorizes robots based on their performance in various tasks, focusing on their ability to interact with their environment through touch. Unlike previous classification methods, the Tree of Robots emphasizes the safety and effectiveness of robots by assessing their tactile capabilities. It aims to provide a comprehensive overview of robots, including their structures and performance metrics. The encyclopedia will be continuously updated and expanded to include various robotic systems, such as humanoids and mobile robots. It seeks to guide future robotics development by aligning hardware and software for optimal performance.
