Each robot costs only a single penny to manufacture. The robots could help advance everything from nanotechnology ...

The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has been appointed by the China National Space Administration ...

The newest frontier in robotics is almost invisible to the naked eye. Researchers have built a robot smaller than a grain of salt that can not only move through its environment but also sense what is ...

The robots are powered by tiny microcomputers developed by David Blaauw and Dennis Sylvester, engineers at the University of ...

Robots small enough to travel autonomously through the human body to repair damaged sites may seem the stuff of science ...

Salto the robot is acting a little squirrelly. The jumping bot can take a flying leap and land on a narrow pipe ­­­— just like a squirrel soaring from branch to branch. It’s the first time scientists ...

From R2-D2 to Optimus Prime, Wall-E to The Iron Giant, robots have long captured our collective imaginations. In today’s world, their influence is far less limited to fictional settings; robotics are ...

Asa Whitney Professor of Mechanical Engineering Mark Yim has completed the second phase of a human-robot interaction research project at Penn’s ModLab. The project primarily aims to develop Quori, a ...

With its hairless silicone skin and blue complexion, Emo the robot looks more like a mechanical re-creation of the Blue Man Group than a regular human. Until it smiles. In a study published March 27 ...

Researchers have developed a new robotic framework powered by artificial intelligence -- called RHyME (Retrieval for Hybrid Imitation under Mismatched Execution) -- that allows robots to learn tasks ...

The Master of Science in Robotics final project is where students put the skills, lessons, and ideas they've developed into practice. These faculty-guided experiences provide an opportunity for ...
