Harvard’s tiny flying robot, known as the RoboBee, has just gotten a major upgrade that makes landing much safer and smoother ...

It was applied to Harvard’s RoboBee – a tiny flapping-wing robot. “RoboBee is an excellent platform to explore the interface ...

Robot uses springy leg . Typically, insect-scale robots fly or crawl, but hopping offers energy efficiency. The MIT robot ...

As previously reported, the ultimate goal of the RoboBee initiative is to build a swarm of tiny interconnected robots capable ...

A hopping, insect-sized robot can jump over gaps or obstacles, traverse rough, slippery, or slanted surfaces, and perform aerial acrobatic maneuvers, while using a fraction of the energy required for ...

The RoboBee is already a little older. It has now been upgraded with a landing gear and a flight control system that enable ...

The robot’s controller allows it to adapt smoothly to different surfaces, adjusting its movements without hesitation. For example, jumping on grass needs extra thrust because the blades of grass ...

A team of researchers from MIT has created a small but powerful robot that can jump like an insect and move across rough and ...

Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, have just unveiled the world’s smallest flying robot. With a wingspan ...

The Harvard team has harnessed behaviours that are so reliable they make animals act as robots while still maintaining their ...

MIT researchers have developed a tiny hopping robot able to traverse difficult conditions while carrying weights several ...

But a team of researchers at Harvard has recognized that there are some behaviors that are so instinctual that it's possible ...
