If you say “jump” I say “how high?” – and a new robot from UC Santa Barbara says “over 100 ft (30 m).” The research team says that’s higher than anything else has ever jumped, be it robot or animal, ...

Robots are super interesting, but you probably shouldn’t start learning about them with a full-sized industrial SCARA arm or anything. Better to learn with something smaller and simpler to understand.

The "Morphobot" will be able to transform to get into inaccessible environments. A real-life transforming robot designed to mimic the movement of animals that roam Planet Earth will eventually change ...

A group of researchers developed a quadruped robot platform that can reproduce the neuromuscular dynamics of animals, discovering that a steady gait and experimental behaviors of walking cats emerged ...

Researchers have developed an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system that enables a four-legged robot to adapt its gait to different, unfamiliar terrain, just like a real animal, in what is believed to ...

Inertial assistance could help engineers design robots with better stability. Autonomous motion designs can run or climb, but few can do both and effectively transition between surfaces. Now, ...
