If you’ve stood in line for Disneyland’s “Star Tours” ride before, the below picture might look a little familiar. But this isn’t an animatronic for a new Star Wars attraction. Instead, it’s an actual ...

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 ...

Scientists have created a flying robot inspired by how a rhinoceros beetle flaps its wings to take off. The concept is based on how some birds, bats, and other insects tuck their wings against their ...

Scientists have created what they say is the world's smallest untethered flying robot, by taking a unique approach to its design. To minimize size and weight, they've moved the bot's power and control ...

Researchers in California have created an incredibly small robot that needs no battery or wired power supply to zip through the air. Instead, it uses magnets to fly. A magnetic field produced by an ...

(Nanowerk News) Biologically inspired robotics aims to replicate the extraordinary versatility found in nature. Chameleons alter skin pigmentation to camouflage against predators. Birds morph wings ...

A robot can design, build and test objects made from folded paper, such as planes or grippers, better than a human if given the same number of attempts. Robotic laboratories can test and design ...

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a micro-flapping-wing robot that exhibits flight characteristics and speeds similar to those of a bee. An AI-based, ...

Two autonomous robots combine walking, flying, and rolling in rescue missions that would be too risky for humans.

Engineers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have made a robot pilot that can pilot a plane after just reading the manual once. The robot is called PIBOT, and it sits in ...
