Engineers have developed a flying robot fish designed to collect water samples, which can leap out of water and fly back to base. Researchers from Imperial College London have ‘leapt’ to the challenge ...

Robots flying around in space seem more like fiction than reality, but recently NASA has been testing their free-flying robots called Smart SPHERES (Synchronized Position Hold, Engage, Reorient, ...

In a demonstration that signals a new chapter in mobile robotics, researchers at the California Institute of Technology have ...

China’s Chang’e-7 mission, set for 2026, aims to explore the moon’s far side with an innovative flying robot. With crater temperatures plunging to -250°F, the robot must withstand some of the coldest ...

Automation expert Festo has created three robots inspired by butterflies, ants and a chameleon. They can fly in packs, self charge, work in groups and pick up pretty much anything. The pick of the ...

MIT scientists are designing robotic insects that could one day swarm out of mechanical hives and perform pollination at a rapid pace — ensuring fruits and vegetables are grown at an unprecedented ...

Harvard's RoboBee will one day conduct artificial pollination and survey disaster zones, but first it has to stop crash landing. Reading time 2 minutes Imagine tiny robotic bees buzzing around fields ...

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 ...
