Researchers have been playing around with various oddball forms of robot locomotion; surely, we’ve seen it all, haven’t we? Not so! Lucky for us, [researchers at Stanford] are now showing us a new way ...

We've been hearing a lot lately about robots that are designed to operate in hazardous environments such as disaster sites. In these types of places, it's entirely possible that their locomotion ...

Locomotive magnetic soft robots are categorized based on their structural characteristics into one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), three-dimensional (3D), and fluidic types. Recently, Dr.

There is a lot of buzz these days in the manufacturing sector about robots — and how they can help manufacturers address some of the challenges they face in today’s market, such as increased ...

Eels have a unique ability to move even after a spinal cord injury, a feat that has long puzzled scientists. An international research team led by Tohoku University has uncovered the secret behind ...

Conceptually, the D1 robot is an upgrade over current market options, such as Boston Dynamics’ Spot robot dog. However, it’s ...

A small drone takes a test flight through a space filled with randomly placed cardboard cylinders acting as stand-ins for trees, people or structures. The algorithm controlling the drone has been ...

It seems obvious that the way a robot moves would affect how people interact with it, and whether they consider it easy or safe to be near. But what poses and movement types specifically are ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. In today’s industrial automation field, robots handle difficult, dangerous, and repeated tasks. These jobs include the ...
