Scientists have created what they say is the world's smallest untethered flying robot, by taking a unique approach to its ...

Utilizing efficient microfabrication methods, the design produces a paper clip-light robot with exceptional agility. It is one of the strongest jumpers about size among current robots, with an ...

Researchers in California have created an incredibly small robot that needs no battery or wired power supply to zip through ...

The robot moves by changing the strength of the magnetic field, scientists can make it hover, change direction, and even hit small targets, just like a bee flying from flower to flower. In the future, ...

“If we apply principles from how insects operate, then we may be able to develop robots that have similar capabilities at a much smaller size than traditional robots. This has potential applications ...

Like a bumblebee flitting from flower to flower, a new insect-inspired flying robot created by engineers at the University of ...

Engineers at the University of California, Berkeley have created the world’s smallest flying robot that can be controlled without any wires. This tiny insect-like machine is less than 1 centimeter ...

Earlier iterations of the robotic insect consisted of four identical modules, each equipped with two wings, assembled into a ...

The new design halves the size of the team’s earlier model ... Despite the team’s improvements, the robotic insects still cannot match the capabilities of natural pollinators.

A team of Chinese scientists has created a six-legged "space mining robot" inspired by insects, which could be used for prospecting and mining on the moon or asteroids in the future. Unlike ...
