Textbooks that provide a broad algorithmic perspective on the mechanics and dynamics of robots almost unfailingly serve students at the graduate level. Introduction to Autonomous Robots offers a ...

Tactile robots typically use dense arrays of sensors to detect pressure and texture. Most most robotic sensors today are ...

The 1.2 g PLioBot robot features an innovative origami design, integrating actuators for high-speed, multi-environment ...

The convergence of mechanics and electronics in robotics brings with it a lot of challenges. Thanks to 3D printing and low cost components, it’s possible to quickly and easily experiment with a ...

Chances are that at some point you’ve used an elliptical trainer, or cross-trainer, in the gym. A piece of equipment designed to simulate stair climbing, walking, or running, for most of us the ...

Precision in human-robot interaction depends on the ability to recognise and track human faces along with detailed facial ...

Researchers have shown how to create morphing robotic mechanisms and shape-shifting sculptures from a single sheet of paper in a method reminiscent of origami, the Japanese art of paper folding.
