China's Chang'e-5 probe landed after a mission to grab samples from the moon.
Although quadcopter drones may offer relatively good battery life, their hexa- and octocopter counterparts can lift heavier loads. The xFold drone can go either way, however, with extra propeller arms that can be attached or detached as needed.
We’ve often seen hearing dogs help those who may have trouble listening but there are a few issues with that system. Firstly, getting a hearing dog is expensive, secondly the training takes a long time, and they really aren’t an accessible solution for everyone. So this conceptual robot + smart home...
The world’s largest iceberg appears days away from crashing into a penguin-filled island. These robots will study the aftermath.
The South Korean firm says it wants to introduce the tech to the U.S. early next year.
A lot can change in a year. Especially this year. For Boston Dynamics, the past 12 months have brought a number of radical changes traditionally not seen at 30-year-old businesses of its size. It’s a list that includes the first new CEO in the company’s history, wide availability of its first commer...
Researchers at the University of Georgia designed a new soft robotic gripper that draws inspiration from an unusual source: pole beans.
Ordinarily, if you want to make a 3D-printed liquid-filled object, you have to inject the liquid after the object has been printed. A new process, however, allows such items to be printed all in one step – and the technology could have some valuable applications.
A robotic fish designed and built at a research lab at UMass Amherst can accelerate up to 20g, an acceleration comparable to the fastest live fish that has been measured so far. No other robotic fish
While the film "Transformers" introduced intelligent robots that morphed between shapes with multiple functionalities, researchers are developing intelligent soft transformers to significantly accelerate ...
Gita is a little pig-looking robot that follows you around and carries stuff you'd rather not carry yourself. Made by the people behind Vespa its pricey, and not quite ready for consumers, but a lot of fun.
Scientists demonstrate a innovative e-skin with touch and proximity-sensing capabilities without using dedicated touch sensors
While ocean-based fish farms do help take pressure off of wild stocks, they have eco-unfriendly drawbacks of their own. A new underwater robot is being designed to address that situation, by autonomously inspecting the fish and their pens.
On Dec. 12, a small group of senior military officers gathered at the range to observe a company assault demonstration.
Crops will grow in stacks 14 layers high and will use more than 20,000 LED lights. Robots on wheels will deliver seeds to the growing shelves.
You'll see these guys patrolling the parking garage and assisting customers with any vehicle issues. So cool! 🤖
Researchers at Tecnologico de Monterrey in Mexico have recently created a low-cost robotic arm that could enhance online robotics education, allowing teachers to remotely demonstrate theoretical concepts ...
MIT professor Sangbae Kim and his research team are supporting joint research by distributing Mini-Cheetahs to researchers all around the world.
ANYmal demonstrates how hybrid mobility can benefit quadrupedal robots
Dexai Robotics used parts from igus in designing Alfred 2.0, its robotic system intended to help restaurants serve food safely.
Researchers at Northwestern University have developed a new soft robot that can walk at roughly the speed of a human, activated by light and magnetic fields. The robot can squeeze into tight spaces and pick up, carry and release objects on demand.
Australian research voyage to investigate how life in the Southern Ocean captures and stores carbon from the atmosphere. A fleet of new-generation, deep-diving ocean robots will be deployed in the Southern Ocean, in a major study of how marine life acts as a handbrake on global warming. Th
Eyewitness News got an exclusive look at a new tool the NYPD has at its disposal for responding to emergency situations. It's a robot dog known as "Digidog."
