AstraQua Wins $1.3 Million NASA Contract to Teach Robots to Feel Pain
Original: Teaching Robots to “Feel Pain”: AstraQua Secures $1.3 Million NASA Contract
Robotics company AstraQua has secured a $1.3 million contract from NASA to develop technology that allows robots to sense and respond to damage in a way similar to feeling pain. The project could improve the safety and autonomy of robotic systems, particularly in environments where human intervention is difficult, such as space missions.
Why now: The unusual combination of NASA funding and a biology-inspired robotics capability has drawn fresh attention to advances in robotic sensing.
