Humanoid robots look impressive and have enormous potential to change our daily lives, but they still have a reputation for ...

A collaborative team of researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and Ajou University in South Korea has revealed that the unique fan-like ...

This spinning-mass principle drives several robots in development. One is a remote-controlled wheel that jumps when the internal mass rotates fast enough to lift it off the ground. Unlike spring-based ...

Phase-change actuation has been revived for the era of untethered, electrically driven soft robots. Our team at the University of Coimbra have developed a phase transition soft actuator designed to ...

Picture a robot controlled by micromotors so small and light that it suspends itself over water like a bug. With engineers at the University of Virginia, that’s now an achievable reality. With their ...

Leaf-inspired aquabot with programmable propulsion and sensing. A bio-inspired S-aquabot integrates flexible hybrid electronics, vein-like fuel channels, and a programmable Marangoni motor. The design ...

A collaborative team of researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and Ajou University in South Korea has revealed that the unique fan-like ...

Underwater robots may be a key to understanding how the climate is changing and how our sea levels are rising. This year might be a preview of what the future holds. Researchers at UC San Diego’s ...

Scientists built ethanol-powered leaf-like robots that move quietly on water, gather data, and blend with nature, offering a new path for sustainable aquatic tech. (Nanowerk News) Tiny robots that ...
