The idea of a single robot that can transform into three different machines sounds like science fiction, but it is already ...

3D-printable robot uses air to power its legs for movement. The robot shell is created as one piece for easy assembly with minimal steps. It's cost-effective with no electronics needed, allowing it to ...

It might soon be relatively trivial to make soft robots — at least, if you have a 3D printer handy. UC San Diego researchers have devised a way to 3D-print insect-like flexible robots cheaply, quickly ...

Internals of 3D printed “print and fold” robot. [Image source: MIT CSAIL] Robot design traditionally separates the body geometry from the mechanics of the gait, but they both have a profound effect ...

University of California, Berkeley, has unveiled a new open-source, budget-friendly and customizable humanoid robot called Berkeley Humanoid Lite. The robot has been designed to make robotics research ...

As the saying goes — when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. When life gives you a two-ton surplus industrial robot ...

What would a space ER look like? Bio-inks, magnetic robots, and fungi-inspired tubes are just some of the futuristic options. By Tatyana Woodall Published Jul 25, 2023 9:00 AM EDT Get the Popular ...

Applications for 3D printing/additive manufacturing has grown by leaps and bounds over the past decade—particularly for its use to produce production- and assembly-ready parts, not just prototypes.

When you imagine robots, you probably aren't picturing stretchy meshes that can float on water, but that's exactly what researchers at North Carolina State University have developed. These soft ...

There's a lot of talk about the promise 3D printing holds to transform manufacturing, but far less coverage of how the technology is actually being implemented in enterprise today. Aside from enabling ...

As 3D-printed construction becomes more common, it's being used for everything from housing to schools and bridges. Now yet another example of the cutting edge tech's usefulness comes from Advanced ...
