Inspired by how ants move through narrow spaces by shortening their legs, scientists have built a robot that draws in its limbs to navigate constricted passages. The robot was able to hunch down and ...

China has unveiled its first emergency rescue and transport robot, developed by CSSC Haishen Company and Hangzhou-based DEEP Robotics. Debuting in Beijing on March 26, the robot is designed to operate ...

Legged robot locomotion and control encompass the integration of advanced mechanical design, sensorimotor coordination and adaptive algorithms to enable agile and efficient movement over diverse ...

Robots that can think and move are no longer confined to factory floors or humanoid prototypes. Researchers have now shrunk ...

Researchers have demonstrated a caterpillar-like soft robot that can move forward, backward and dip under narrow spaces. The caterpillar-bot's movement is driven by a novel pattern of silver nanowires ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan’s Robotics Department and the Southern University of Science and Technology in China published a research paper discussing the use of discrete-time hybrid ...

A tunable initial coiling structure soft robot (ICSBot) has been developed by combining theoretical calculations, finite element analysis, and direct ink writing technology. By mimicking the ...
