Modularity is taking off in more ways than one in space exploration. The design of the upcoming "Lunar Gateway" space station ...

There are already several autonomous robots that mow grass, and even a few that clear snow. The modular Yarbo robot, however, can tend to both grass and snow, plus it can blow away dead leaves or ...

The size and configuration of that polygon varies, depending on the task for which the robot is required. Among other things, it can walk on four legs, form itself into a robotic arm, or roll like a ...

Researchers at Dartmouth College have created modular robots that can assemble into structures and move through real-world terrain. Built from cube-shaped blocks, the robots combine rigid rods with ...

LimX Dynamics has taken another leap in humanoid robotics with its latest demonstration of Oli. In a new YouTube video ...

Each module in the crystalline robot system attaches to another using a key and lock mechanism. This two-dimensional system moves and alters its shape across the plane by expanding and contracting, ...

DRm System Offers Flexible and Cost-Efficient Solutions for ADAS Testing Across Multiple Vehicle Types from Passenger Car up to Heavy Duty Trucks FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Humanetics, ...

Here’s an interesting comment from MIT’s Alfonso Parra Rubio, “Treating soft versus hard robotics is a false dichotomy.” For, I suppose, obvious reasons, thinking around technology tends to be a ...

After years of outsourcing and offshoring manufacturing to countries with cheaper labor and bigger production ecosystems, the U.S. and Europe are on a mission to bring some of that industrial work ...

Numerous new robotic technologies have debuted over the past two decades, but the new ATRO robot system from Beckhoff may be one of the first modular, DIY (do-it-yourself) robot technologies for the ...

I recently got a chance to see the new Yarbo modular robot in action at a home on Long Island, N.Y. It’s part lawn mower, snow blower, and leaf blower (for now). I watched as the device made its way ...
