This isn’t actually the first time we’ve seen the MeArm; the small robot has been around since 2014 and has undergone a number of revisions and upgrades. Even this revision has been out for a ...

When a group of researchers asked an AI to design a robot that could walk, it created a "small, squishy and misshapen" thing that walks by spasming when filled with air. The researchers ...

Springtails, small bugs often found crawling through leaf litter and garden soil, are expert jumpers. Inspired by these hopping hexapods, roboticists have made a walking, jumping robot that pushes ...

Harvard researchers have developed a small, agile robot capable of walking and jumping, inspired by hopping hexapods like springtails. The innovation showcases microrobots that can navigate tight ...

Applying this knowledge to robotics, the team developed a system of small robots that can work together to change shape and strength. Each robotic unit is equipped with eight electrically powered ...
