Two machines resembling robotic vacuum cleaners sped around a ring colliding, shooting sparks and catching fire, as Iranian engineering students watched from behind plexiglass.

Locomotive magnetic soft robots are categorized based on their structural characteristics into one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), three-dimensional (3D), and fluidic types. Recently, Dr.

A breakthrough from Canadian researchers brings us closer to robots that move with the power and grace of living organisms.

Robotics engineers worldwide are tackling one of the most challenging frontiers in artificial intelligence and mechanical ...

Picture a robot controlled by micromotors so small and light that it suspends itself over water like a bug. With engineers at the University of Virginia, that’s now an achievable reality. With their ...
