Unless you work at the University of Pennsylvania’s GRASP Laboratory, that is. When they’re not building miniature sculptures or reenacting Space Invaders, the ...

We've seen some impressive nature-inspired flying bots from the creative minds at Festo's Bionic Learning Network over the years, but the autonomous BionicBee is not only the smallest so far but also ...

Arizona's Revolute Robotics has presented its autonomous Hybrid Mobility Robot (HMR), a whirling, spherical cage that can fly like a multicopter, or roll in any direction using two gyroscopic gimbal ...

At first glance, the HMR looks like something straight out of a science fiction movie. Picture a spherical cage that can move on its own omnidirectional path, effortlessly rolling across the ground.

In a demonstration that signals a new chapter in mobile robotics, researchers at the California Institute of Technology have introduced a machine that can walk like a human, take flight like a drone, ...

Inspired by birds that fly in tight bunches, researchers fit drones with GPS, processors, and radios that allow them to navigate in formation or... Can drones, the small unmanned aircraft that are at ...

This adolescent-looking android is the first flying humanoid robot — but the internet is creeped out by how it looks. The Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) recently shared a video that updated ...

In Yu Gu’s Interactive Robotics Laboratory at WVU, doctoral student Trevor Smith observes Loopy, a multicellular robot that is learning to respond organically and autonomously to its environment. West ...

MIT scientists are designing robotic insects that could one day swarm out of mechanical hives and perform pollination at a rapid pace — ensuring fruits and vegetables are grown at an unprecedented ...

Can drones, the small unmanned aircraft that are at the forefront of fields from warfare to commercial delivery systems, fly without human intervention? A team of Hungarian researchers answers yes, ...
