Bioinspired robot airdrops into remote waters via morphing wing-sail

“Fall like a maple seed, sail like a boat” sounds like advice from legendary heavyweight boxer Muhammad Ali. In reality, it describes a new...

Wound-helix robot leaps and bounds over obstacles

Remember that “dancing pencils” game schoolchildren played, where they passed two pencils through a small rubber band, twisted them repeatedly, and then let go...

Humanoid robots can sprint and box – but the real test is doing the laundry

Neurosymbolic planning using natural language communication for cooperative autonomous vehicles

Water-pumping robot worms its way over rugged coastal terrain

Biomimicry involves borrowing ideas from nature to solve engineering problems. This is what one of the research teams at New York University's Tandon School...

Next-gen hopping robot is the smart flea we didn’t know we needed

We’ve already seen robots that can swim like fish, stick to walls like geckos, and grab objects like elephants. Now, engineers at the University...

MIT’s paper-thin robot swims using living cells and light

An MIT robot powered by a single layer of living muscle cells swam through a watery maze, following a light held in a researcher’s...
