Robots are super interesting, but you probably shouldn’t start learning about them with a full-sized industrial SCARA arm or anything. Better to learn with something smaller and simpler to understand.

Scientists turned simple knots into tiny robots that jump, spin, and plant seeds, offering a new tool for ecosystem restoration.

Roboticists at Harvard and the Indian Institute of Technology Madras – very smart folks indeed – somehow entirely missed the ...

Simple ant-like robots collectively build or demolish structures without central control, just by tuning two parameters - ...

In what might be one of the most underappreciated technological breakthroughs of our time, Alphabet's Google DeepMind has accomplished something deceptively difficult -- teaching a robot to tie ...

Researchers at Harvard have developed a fleet of robotic ants that mimic the self-organizing ...

Microrobots have long promised precision drug delivery inside the human body, but making them practical has remained difficult. Many designs are complex, expensive to manufacture, or hard to control ...

In crowded environments, more robots don’t always mean faster results—in fact, too many can bring everything to a standstill. Harvard researchers discovered a surprising fix: adding a bit of ...

Tutor Intelligence in Watertown is a kind of kindergarten for robots.

Robots typically excel at structured, repeatable tasks such as welding body panels together for cars or painting those vehicles. They've long struggled with more variable, less-structured work such as ...

California's Clone Robotics has just posted a video of its full-body Protoclone humanoid robot, and well … it's a wee bit creepy. The prototype's less disturbing Clone descendants, however, could one ...
