A group of engineers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) has developed a four-legged robot dog. The team at EPFL's Computational Robot Design & Fabrication Lab (CREATE), ...

So we can go back to operate in flight.

A bio-inspired robot can use water from the environment to launch itself into the air, British researchers revealed. The robot can travel 85 feet through the air after taking off and researchers ...

Biomedical, bio-inspired, and micro robotics focuses on robotic systems that are closely aligned with biological systems. This includes both robotic systems that are human body-mounted and augment ...

A new bio-inspired robot, which employs that same strategy, could one day be used in underground exploration or even search-and-rescue missions. An earthworm's body is made up of individual ...

Researchers at the Technical University of Darmstadt and the Helmholtz Center Dresden-Rossendorf have developed flexible ...

(Nanowerk News) It is a high-speed movement: within fractions of a second the mouthparts of the dragonfly larvae spring forwards to seize its prey. For decades, researchers had assumed that this ...

Researchers in the Aerial Robotics Lab at Imperial College London have developed a bio-inspired robot that can propel itself out of water. Led by Mirko Kovac, the team published a study in Science ...

Scientists from Carnegie Mellon University, in partnership with paleontologists from Spain and Poland, have employed ancient fossil records to fabricate a soft robotic model of pleurocystitid. This ...
