Researchers at UC Santa Barbara and TU Dresden are pioneering a new approach to robotics by creating a collective of small robots that function like a smart material. According to Matthew Devlin, a former doctoral researcher in the lab of UCSB mechanical ...

A team from the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Michigan has built the tiniest programmable, self-driving robots ever made—microscopic

NEW YORK — As the new robot called Sprout walks around a Manhattan office, nodding its rectangular head, lifting its windshield wiper-like “eyebrows” and offering to shake your hand with its grippers, it looks nothing like the sleek and intimidating humanoids built by companies like Tesla.

A brand-new engineering approach at Carnegie Mellon University is creating “designer” biological robots using human lung cells. Known as AggreBots, these microscale living machines may one day traverse the body to deliver therapeutic or mechanical ...

These robots are more than meets the eye. If you've ever wanted to "roll out" like one of the Autobots from the hit media franchise "Transformers," you might be able to soon! The ride-able transforming humanoid robot,'J-deite RIDE' robot is unveiled in ...

In robotics, as in so many things, small is beautiful. The trouble is that making them really small is very nearly impossible. “Building robots that operate independently at sizes below one millimeter is incredibly difficult,” says roboticist Marc ...
