Forget the humanoid Asimo and Roomba, the roaming vacuum. The next generation of robots will be soft-bodied, providing more flexibility than their stiff-jointed cousins, according to researchers at ...

Scientists have achieved a breakthrough in soft robotics, creating four-legged robots capable of walking immediately after being 3D-printed. This innovation utilizes a novel upside-down printing ...

Before there was Arnold (or AH-nuld), there were probably things like this: robots that can walk without sensors or other special means of propulsion. What would it say if it could talk? Probably ...

A maximum reduced walking robot runs at a speed of 0.8 km/h. This does not require a lot of mechanics. Micro-robots with legs can move better over rough terrain than those with wheels. The researchers ...

Why This Is Important: The reason this is such a game-changer is that most robots are one-trick ponies. A walking robot gets stuck if it needs to cross water. Why Should I Care: This isn’t just about ...
