What is it about a cheetah's build that enables it to run so fast? What gives the wolf its exceptional endurance? While these questions can be partly answered through animal experiments, many ...

Here’s an interesting comment from MIT’s Alfonso Parra Rubio, “Treating soft versus hard robotics is a false dichotomy.” For, I suppose, obvious reasons, thinking around technology tends to be a ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan have developed a modular, open-source robot that can ...

Bioinspired underwater robots that swim by undulating their bodies may be more energy-efficient than their rigid counterparts, but they're also quite difficult to build. That could soon change however ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Taking a cue from nature's evolutionary path from water to land, the Organic Robotics Lab and the Archer Group at Cornell ...

MIT engineers have designed a walking lunar robot cleverly inspired by the animal kingdom. The “mix-and-match” system is made of worm-like robotic limbs astronauts could configure into various ...

In a move that inches us just a little closer to the singularity, engineers have developed robots that can grow, self-repair, and morph by absorbing parts from other robots. They can also help their ...

LimX Dynamics is doing some fascinating work in the robotics arena. Four months after impressing us with its talented Oli humanoid robot, the three-year-old tech startup has just unveiled Tron 2, ...

The UGOT modular AI robot kit offers a fantastic way to learn more about building robots, artificial intelligence and robotics programming. Supporting the Python programming language as well as ...
