As part of #IROS2026, hundreds of academics and industry leaders toured CMU's robotics + engineering facilities.

They got an inside look at what CMU researchers are working on inside the Robotics Innovation Center, Mill 19 and the National Robotics Engineering Center! 👀 🧠

Robots just got a lot more delicate! 🤖🤏

@cmurobotics.bsky.social researchers designed cheap, human-inspired robotic fingertips with silicone skin & tiny fingernails. By combining force & sound sensors, the hands can handle fragile items without crushing them! #IROS2026

Long-Horizon Adaptive Manipulation Planning (LAMP) helps robots plan not only where an object needs to go, but also how they can work together to get it there. 🤖➡️📍

MSR student and project co-lead Shuai Zhou presented this research at #IROS2026 yesterday!

Humanoids can’t always just hit the brakes and power down 🤖🛑

CMU researchers and @Siemens developed PRISM, a new way to monitor when a humanoid can safely stop, helping robots know when to stop before things get risky! #IROS2026

CMU's robotics expertise will be on display during the 2026 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS). CMU’s presence reflects a legacy of more than four decades to founding @cmurobotics.bsky.social, the first academic department in the U.S. dedicated to robotics.
