Dyna Robotics raises $23.5 million to commercialize embodied AI with ‘low-cost robots’

March 27, 2025 by David Edwards

Dyna Robotics has closed a $23.5 million seed round, co-led by CRV and First Round Capital. The startup says to was to “bring embodied AI into the real world with cost-effective, easy to deploy robots for businesses of all sizes”.

Dyna’s robots master one task at a time, starting with tasks like folding and food preparation that can be done using an affordable pair of stationary robotic arms.

This allows embodied AI models to learn and improve in production environments as the company works toward the ultimate goal of achieving general-purpose embodied AI. [Read more…] about Dyna Robotics raises $23.5 million to commercialize embodied AI with ‘low-cost robots’

Desolination: Unique energy and water project combines solar power and desalination

August 19, 2021 by David Edwards

A unique, €10 million “Desolination” project, involving 19 partners and 12 countries, aims to develop a “first-of-its-kind efficient coupling of concentrated solar power and desalination techniques”.

The Horizon 2020 Desolination project started in June, this year and will last 48 months until May 2025.

During this time, innovative technologies related to both concentrated solar power and desalination will be designed to improve the efficiency of existing concepts. [Read more…] about Desolination: Unique energy and water project combines solar power and desalination

Cambridge Consultants unveils ‘dexterous robot with the human touch’

May 16, 2019 by David Edwards

Technology research and development company Cambridge Consultants has unveiled what it describes as a “dexterous robot with the human touch”. (See video below.)

Breakthrough innovation specialist Cambridge Consultants has developed Hank, a robot with flexible robotic fingers inspired by the human hand.

Hank uses a pioneering sensory system embedded in its pneumatic fingers, providing a sophisticated sense of touch and slip, meaning it can emulate the human ability to hold and grip delicate objects using just the right amount of pressure.
