Tiny flying robots have always faced a brutal trade-off between agility and battery life, burning through power just to stay ...

Two insect-like robots, a mini-bug and a water strider may be the smallest, lightest and fastest fully functional micro-robots ever known to be created. Such miniature robots could someday be used for ...

Bacteria-scale robots that can run for months without human control are no longer a lab fantasy. Researchers have now built ...

AMES, Iowa – The tiny tube circled an ant’s thorax, gently trapping the insect and demonstrating the utility of a microrobotic tentacle developed by Iowa State University engineers. “Most robots use ...

Servo robots come in different manners or basis. For this project, the system was integrated to perform in micro-time scale. The servo motor robot actuate movements giving the robot arm precise angle ...

In a bid to bolster its exploration of distant worlds and dig deeper for signs of life, NASA has been working to develop a swarm of cell-phone-sized swimming robots. These would be able to swim in ...

During my visit to Japan last month, meetings with financial institutions and technology labs in Tokyo revealed a trend quietly gaining momentum: swarm finance. I came to these conversations not as a ...

In a nutshell: Researchers have developed minuscule robots that can "assemble" and behave like a collective, building new shapes and tools. Inspired by nature, the team identified and developed the ...

PULLMAN, Wash. — Two insect-like robots, a mini-bug and a water strider, developed at Washington State University, are the smallest, lightest and fastest fully functional micro-robots ever known to be ...
