Three pressure sensors in the robotic hand send sensory feedback to separate electrodes attached to nerve cells, which the brain interprets as touch.

A new robotic hand has a surprisingly humanlike way to cool off: it can sweat.

As well as its robotic hand, the company produces a mobile app that can be used to control the prosthesis.

And then a scene where a robotic hand in the front of the computer appeared.

The little robotic hands have super-heated edges, which mean they burn through tissue (rather than actually cutting it) and cauterise veins as they go.

Next the chimney itself will be pulled down by a combination of human workers and robotic machines.

Twenty years ago people thought animals were unfeeling robotic machines.

Two fighters in serpentine robotic machines try to box each other in to win the fight.

Newer locker rooms may be automated, with robotic machines to store clothes, with such features as a fingerprint scanner to enrol and for later retrieval.

The robotic spacecraft that made these journeys and transmitted the pictures are triumphs of scientific ingenuity.

Over the next century the solar system will instead largely be mapped out by flotillas of tiny robotic spacecraft, he predicted.

Scientists are increasingly concerned that the costs of ever-more complex robotic spacecraft will be unaffordable by constrained science budgets.

A source of oxygen and hydrogen would be useful, he said, even for robotic spacecraft.

Space probes are a form of robotic spacecraft.

However, he insisted that he did not want his robotic voice upgraded to sound more natural.

When the robotic voice spoke of a 'virus', that meant someone who threatened the conspirators' interests.

And when you hit a button on the transmitter, that familiar robotic voice issues forth.

His sentences are then read out by a computerised speech device, producing his distinctive robotic voice.

Sometimes the robotic voice tumbled out uncued.
