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

Researchers at North Carolina State University have created a soft robot that moves in a distinctly caterpillar-like manner. As detailed in the research paper in Science Advances by [Shuang Wu] and ...

Healthcare systems worldwide are struggling with overcrowded hospitals, physician burnout, and rising surgery delays. Which is why it’s always a good thing to see research exploring new solutions ...

A robotic hand developed at EPFL can pick up 24 different objects with human-like movements that emerge spontaneously, thanks to compliant materials and structures rather than programming. When you ...

At 39C3, experts demonstrate how poor the security of humanoid robots is. The range of attacks extends to jailbreaking the ...

Two researchers at UC Berkeley and ETH Zurich have harnessed the power of OpenAI’s GPT-4o large language model to teach cheap robot arms to clean up spills. It’s a clever demonstration of how AI ...

Robots are being put through all kinds of abuse these days. They’re being kicked, punched, shoved, and even dragged by a chain around their neck — all in an apparent effort to teach them how to adapt ...

A key element of a robotics future will be how humans can instruct machines on a real-time basis. But just what kind of instruction is an open question in robotics. New research by Google's DeepMind ...
