Soft robotics engineers at the University of Tartu are building a small robot that resembles a spider's leg. The fingernail-long leg moves more flexibly than conventional robots. Inspired by nature, ...

Scientists have achieved a breakthrough in robotics by designing the first robotic leg equipped with “artificial muscles,” allowing the machine to move more like a human than previously possible. The ...

Compared to robots, human bodies are flexible, capable of fine movements, and can convert energy efficiently into movement. Drawing inspiration from human gait, researchers from Japan crafted a ...

Inventors and researchers have been developing robots for almost 70 years. To date, all the machines they have built – whether for factories or elsewhere – have had one thing in common: they are ...

Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute (RI) has made a remarkable leap in robotics by developing a system that allows a standard quadruped robot to walk on a narrow balance beam! According to ...

In a striking fusion of nature-inspired design and cutting-edge robotics, Japanese engineering giant Kawasaki has unveiled CORLEO, a revolutionary four-legged robot equipped with hooves. Showcased at ...

A Chinese robotics firm has demonstrated what it calls a major step toward the ...

New video footage emerged this week of a four-legged robot goalkeeper making some impressive saves in a research lab. The robotic goalie, referred to as a dog because of its four legs and canine-like ...
