This article highlights recent advancements in robotics, such as human-robot interaction, agile movement, enhanced training methods, soft robotics, brain surgery, medical navigation, and ecological research. Researchers from around Europe have developed a tool called HEUROBOX to assess interactions between humans and robots, while researchers from Zhejiang University have designed a cable-driven snake-like robot for efficient motion in confined spaces. Additionally, researchers from the University of Zurich have developed a new training method that allows robots to learn complex tasks from a single demonstration. Finally, researchers from the University of Tokyo have developed a soft robot that can be used for medical navigation and ecological research.
