Unlike many STEM toys that rely heavily on building-block pieces, the Rider kit is ready to use out of the box and you don’t ...

Endurance limitations have long hindered humanoid robots' real-world deployment. On July 27, Kepler's Forerunner K2 "Bumblebee" set a new benchmark by completing the industry's first 8-hour nonstop ...

Picture a robot. What comes to mind? Perhaps a droid from Star Wars or The Jetsons: a machine that can move, speak and perform tasks all by itself. Or maybe your imagination jumps to humanoid robots à ...

Researchers introduces the first toroidal, light-driven micro-robot that can move autonomously in viscous liquids, such as mucus. This innovation marks a major step forward in developing micro-robots ...

Researchers at Tel Aviv University have developed a hybrid micro-robot, the size of a single biological cell (about 10 microns across), that can be controlled and navigated using two different ...

In the 1980s when micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) were first created, computer engineers were excited by the idea ...

In a nutshell: Researchers have developed minuscule robots that can "assemble" and behave like a collective, building new shapes and tools. Inspired by nature, the team identified and developed the ...

Researchers have developed a hybrid micro-robot, the size of a single biological cell (about 10 microns across), that can be controlled and navigated using two different mechanisms -- electric and ...

Origami-Inspired Microrobot for Precision Surgical Manipulation. 1 Photo of the compliant micro-robot. 2 Exploded view of the delta micro-robot. 3 Cell-level intraoperative sensing. 4 Laser surgery ...

Because we've seen so many robots. We've seen Robbie the Robot from the 1956 movie Forbidden Planet, Rosie the housekeeper from The Jetsons, the animated Gigantor, C-3PO and R2-D2 from late 1970s Star ...
