Makers, hobbyists, and Arduino enthusiasts searching for a project to keep them busy this weekend may be interested in this awesome wirelessly controlled crawling robot project created by ...

Researchers from Ben Gurion University in the Negev, Israel, have designed a reconfigurable crawling robot that can shift its shape to traverse different terrains. Known as DSTAR, the robot’s video ...

Biological systems have inspired the development of next-generation soft robotic systems with diverse motions and functions. Such versatility in soft robots—in terms of rapid and efficient ...

Rising Sprawl-Tuned Autonomous Robot (RSTAR), which was introduced at the International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA 2018) in Brisbane, Australia, is the name of an innovative robot ...

It’s a bizarre sight: With a short burst of light, a sponge-shaped robot scoots across a tiled surface. Flipped on its back, it repeatedly twitches as if doing sit-ups. By tinkering with the light’s ...
