Tiny robot duo could revolutionize safety checks in planes, buildings, and beyond

One robot crawls like an insect. The other inflates and slithers like a snake. On their own, these tiny machines might not seem like...

Ultra-light robotic hand offers new hope for amputees with simple, natural control

A team of researchers in South Korea has developed a groundbreaking ultra-light robotic prosthetic hand that makes it easier and more natural for amputees...

Scientists develop self-healing artificial muscles for smarter robots

Engineers at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln have made a big leap toward building robots and wearable technology that can heal themselves—just like human skin. Inspired...

Scientists create soft robots that walk straight out of a 3D printer

Imagine printing a robot—and watching it walk away as soon as it’s finished. That’s exactly what scientists at the University of Edinburgh have done. They’ve...

Forget drones—this robot transforms on the go

Imagine a robot that can fly through the air, then instantly transform midair into a rolling machine that zips across the ground. That’s exactly what...

Cyborg jellyfish could be the future of ocean exploration

Jellyfish might not look like advanced swimmers, but they can glide long distances in the ocean while using very little energy. They don’t have bones...

Scientists develop touch-based tools to make remote robot work safer and smarter

A team of engineers from POSTECH in South Korea has created new technology that could make working with robots in dangerous industrial environments much...

Scientists use sound waves to move objects underwater—without touching them

Sound doesn’t just help us hear music or communicate underwater—it can also be used to move objects without physically touching them. Thanks to new research...

This earthworm-inspired robot can swim, crawl, and hop

Soft robots are known for their ability to bend, stretch, and adapt to their surroundings. However, most of them still need rigid electronic components...

Scientists create a robot that “feels” its way through tough terrain

Imagine going for a hike through a dense forest. You feel the crunch of leaves under your feet, hear the snap of branches, and...
