Modular robots built by Dartmouth researchers are finding their feet outdoors. Engineered to assemble into structures that best suit the task at hand, the robots are pieced together from cube-shaped ...

While robots have been making our lives easier and our assembly lines more efficient for over half a century now, we haven’t quite cracked a Jetsons-like general purpose robot yet. Sure, Boston ...

Numerous new robotic technologies have debuted over the past two decades, but the new ATRO robot system from Beckhoff may be one of the first modular, DIY (do-it-yourself) robot technologies for the ...

The ancient Japanese paper-folding art of origami (“ori” meaning “folding,” and “kami” meaning “paper”) probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you think about groundbreaking robot ...

Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed. Researchers say they want to create the ‘Swiss army knife’ of the robot world Researchers say they want to create ...

Researchers at Dartmouth College have created modular robots that can assemble into structures and move through real-world terrain. Built from cube-shaped blocks, the robots combine rigid rods with ...

A Cornell-led team has developed modular robots that can perceive their surroundings, make decisions and autonomously assume different shapes in order to perform various tasks – an accomplishment that ...

The UGOT modular AI robot kit offers a fantastic way to learn more about building robots, artificial intelligence and robotics programming. Supporting the Python programming language as well as ...

Origami has plenty to offer the world of robotics, inspiring clever folding machines that could find their way into our stomaches and out to Mars. Scientists have again borrowed from this ancient ...

Technological advances within the electronics industry have driven manufacturers to redefine their production processes. By improving the speed, flexibility, and efficiency needed to support new ...

MIT engineers have designed a walking lunar robot cleverly inspired by the animal kingdom. The “mix-and-match” system is made of worm-like robotic limbs astronauts could configure into various ...
