One robot replacing a whole fleet of specialized machines? LimX Dynamics’ Tron 2 makes that science fiction dream a nearer reality. Starting at $7,000, this multi-form embodied platform melds modular ...

New modular robot design leverages shared electronics and power to maintain function even when modules fail.

Bioinspired underwater robots that swim by undulating their bodies may be more energy-efficient than their rigid counterparts, but they're also quite difficult to build. That could soon change however ...

No single robot can perform all tasks, yet bringing a bunch of different robots along on Moon missions would be quite inefficient. The WORMS setup offers an alternative, in the form of components that ...

Microsoft Research has given a glimpse at some of its prototype data center robotics efforts. In a paper for Hotnets, the team said that "this marks the beginning of a fundamental shift in how we ...

Wouldn’t it be great to have a robot that not only understands its surroundings but also makes decisions on the fly—all without needing to connect to the cloud. It sounds like something out of a ...
