We’re used to thinking about robots has metal boxes with rigid steel arms and legs – the kind of things you would see in a 1980s movie – not in the average home or business space. But that’s quickly ...

Nobody wants to go anywhere near chemical or biological weapons, so the US Army is testing a robotic Autonomous Equipment Decontamination System that can decontaminate military vehicles exposed to ...

A brand-new engineering approach at Carnegie Mellon University is creating "designer" biological robots using human lung cells. Known as AggreBots, these microscale living machines may one day ...

(BOSTON) — Biobots, whose growing line of variants started with Xenobots, are fascinating tiny self-powered living robots built exclusively using frog embryonic cells. Originally developed in the ...

Engineers at MIT have devised an ingenious new way to produce artificial muscles for soft robots that can flex in more than one direction, similar to the complex muscles in the human body. The team ...

This sped-up video of the robot underwater shows the legs walking forward, with the muscle contractions being stimulated by electricity. Researchers at the University of Tokyo have created a ...
