Spherical robots comprise a class of mobile systems characterised by a fully enclosed spherical shell that integrates internal actuation mechanisms. Their dynamics are defined by complex nonholonomic ...

A student at Colorado State University, Greg Schroll, has built a spherical robot that can climb over obstacles and navigate the toughest terrains. The Spherical Robot uses gyroscopes to drive and ...

BALTIMORE — Engineers at Johns Hopkins University have implemented a spherical motor that can roll in any direction, rather than rotate on a single axis as conventional motors do. Spherical motors ...

Microrobots may become an effective tool in breaking down the dangerous blood vessel blockages that cause strokes. But these ...

Droideka [Source: Wookieepedia] If ever any sci-fi robot form-factor made more sense than the Droideka of the Star Wars franchise, we’re not sure what it could be. Able to transform from a spheroid ...

NASA's cutting-edge spherical robots, initially devised for exploring Mars and the Moon, have unexpectedly found a new purpose right here on our home planet. Dr. Alice Agogino, a highly regarded ...

The spherical robot, along with more service robots such as a high-altitude cleaning robot, mowing robot and orthopedic ...

An army of inflatable, spherical robots might one day roll around on the Martian surface. Engineers who have designed the lightweight probes say they could economically explore vast regions of other ...

Spherical police robots are equipped with AI and multiple non-lethal tools like net guns, tear spray, and acoustic dispersers.(Screengrab) As artificial intelligence and the AI-enabled robots continue ...

Each of Mochibot’s legs is composed of three sliding rails. These can extend to a maximum of 1.6 feet in length or shrink down to half that. The advantage of using this method of locomotion is that it ...
