This a robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material. Imagine a robot ...

While there are many potential uses for soft-bodied robots, the things are still typically only built in small experimental batches. Scottish scientists are out to change that, with a ...

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.

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 ...

Sonair is pushing towards a new sensor built on 3D ultrasonic technology, giving autonomous robotics the power to see and make the right decisions. Ralph W. Bernstein is the senior business developer ...

A research team develops 3D-printed pneumatic logic modules that control the movements of soft robots using only air pressure. These modules enable logical switching of the air flow and can thus ...

This sensor integrates two core technologies: a 3D acoustic perception technology that estimates the 3D positions of humans or objects even in noisy environments, and a sound wave-based dual ...

One of humankind's most important senses for navigating our world is our ability to see in three dimensions (3D), so it makes sense to give our robots the same capability. But how we see may or may ...

Developers in Georgetown, Texas are using robot 3D-printing technology to fight the housing shortage, creating the world’s largest 3D-printed neighborhood. Called Wolf Ranch, the community of three- ...

Robots, drones, artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging digital technologies, which are already helping to advance nuclear decommissioning projects worldwide, are set to play an increasingly ...

This robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. Imagine a robot that can walk, without electronics, and only with the ...
