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
