While there are many potential uses for soft-bodied robots, the things are still typically only built in small experimental batches. Scottish scientists are out to change that, with a ...

Your average 3D printer is just a nozzle shooting out hot plastic while being moved around by a precise robotic mechanism. There’s nothing stopping you replacing the robot and moving around the ...

As the saying goes — when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. When life gives you a two-ton surplus industrial robot ...

An experimental new non-electronic bot, however, can be 3D-printed all in one piece, and it's powered by nothing but air. The soft-bodied robot was created by postdoctoral scholar Yichen Zhai and ...

This a robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material. Imagine a robot ...

University of California, Berkeley, has unveiled a new open-source, budget-friendly and customizable humanoid robot called Berkeley Humanoid Lite. The robot has been designed to make robotics research ...

Construction robots are no longer a far-off idea. They're already changing job sites by tackling repetitive, heavy, and often dangerous tasks. The latest robot comes from Australia, where a ...

Three soft robotics researchers from Fondazione Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia in Italy and the University of Montpellier in France have developed a unique snake-like robot that 3D prints its own ...
