A team of researchers at Cornell University has developed the world’s smallest walking robot. Designed to interact with visible light, the robot moves independently despite its tiny size. The team ...

Micro-sized robots could have a plethora of applications, with their dimensions allowing them to perform various practical tasks inside tightly confined spaces. They could help us repair or assemble ...

Cornell researchers in physics and engineering have created the smallest walking robot yet, and its tiny size is only a side-effect. Controlled by magnets and small enough to diffract visible light, ...

When it comes to locomotion, robots don’t typically do more than one thing at a time. Walkers stick to walking, and rollers stick to rolling. However, this simple method of enabling a cheetah-style ...

Researchers show how their multilegged walking robot can be steered by inducing a dynamic instability. By making the couplings between segments more flexible, the robot changes from walking straight ...

Walking, talking humanoid robots that were once firmly the domain of science fiction are on their way. In fact, a Morgan Stanley report recently predicted that 13 million human robots will be among us ...

Engineers have developed the smallest-ever remote-controlled walking robot -- and it comes in the form of a tiny, adorable peekytoe crab. Just a half-millimeter wide, the tiny crabs can bend, twist, ...
