Researchers have demonstrated a caterpillar-like soft robot that can move forward, backward and dip under narrow spaces. The caterpillar-bot's movement is driven by a novel pattern of silver nanowires ...
HybridLeg robots Olaf and Snogie use impact-safe design and self-recovery to enable scalable, real-world hardware ...
If you’re searching for a unique robot concept, look no further than the new Single-Actuator Wave robot created by researchers at Israel’s Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. They’ve built a ...
This multi-objective setup encourages natural walking behavior rather than rigid or inefficient movement. A four-stage ...
A quadruped robot uses deep reinforcement learning to master walking on varied terrains, demonstrating energy-efficient and ...
Bipedal robots have proved a challenging frontier for roboticists, with styles ranging from clunkers to lurchers to those seemingly falling over drunk. However, the AMBER lab at Texas A&M University ...
Dennis Hong is designing his Whole Skin Locomotion (WSL) mechanism to work on much the same principle as the pseudopod -- or cytoplasmic "foot" -- of the amoeba. Preliminary experiments show that a ...
[James Bruton] is on a quest to explore all the weird and wonderful methods of robot locomotion, and in his latest project created an omnidirectional walker that can move in any direction ...
Boasting a sophisticated design tailored for versatile mobility, Cassie demonstrates remarkable agility as it effortlessly navigates quarter-mile runs and performs impressive long jumps without ...
