Could the future of rescue missions and exploration lie in the hands—or rather, the flexible movements—of a swarm of ...

A team of researchers at Cornell University has developed the world’s smallest walking robot. Designed to interact with visible light, the robot moves independently despite its tiny size. The team ...

Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, have just unveiled the world’s smallest flying robot. With a wingspan of just 9.4 millimeters and weighing 21 milligrams — smaller than a grain ...

A brand-new engineering approach to generate "designer" biological robots using human lung cells is underway in Carnegie ...

Picture a robot controlled by micromotors so small and light that it suspends itself over water like a bug. With engineers at ...

Researchers have created the smallest walking robot yet. Its mission: to be tiny enough to interact with waves of visible light and still move independently, so that it can maneuver to specific ...

A technique called HydroSpread forms ultrathin films directly on water, allowing engineers to build insect-like robots for ...

Fixing underground water pipes usually means digging up roads and sidewalks — a process that's disruptive and expensive. However, researchers at the University of Sheffield in the U.K. are working on ...

Imagine tiny robots zipping across the surface of a lake to check water quality or searching for people in flooded areas. This technology is moving closer to reality thanks to work by researchers at ...

Small delivery robots that use pedestrian areas are spreading on college campuses, with Serve Robotics introducing the latest models with improved sensor and computing power. The industry is now ...
