NEW YORK -- As the new robot called Sprout walks around a Manhattan office, nodding its rectangular head, lifting its windshield wiper-like “eyebrows” and offering to shake your hand with its grippers ...

Robots that can think and move are no longer confined to factory floors or humanoid prototypes. Researchers have now shrunk fully programmable machines to a size smaller than a grain of sand, packing ...

Scientists create smallest programmable robots ever - smaller than salt grains, these breakthrough microscopic machines could ...

Just like bees, the individual robots in this simulation have no master plan. Simply by responding to local cues, they are able to construct honeycomb-like structures. The method could presage a new ...

Robotics is moving onto the critical path of data center construction and operations. From fleet-based drilling to perception ...

A new open-source bipedal robot, dubbed MEVITA, has been designed by engineers at the JSK Robotics Laboratory of the University of Tokyo, Japan. Interestingly, MEVITA aims to tackle the common issues ...

At first glance, the TR1 looks like a compact, square-bodied cleaning robot. But that’s only half the story. With a ...

The hospitality industry has spent the past decade chasing efficiency. What it often lost along the way was the guest experience.

Newly developed mathematical rules allow virtual swarms of tiny robots to build without blueprints. In computer simulations, the robots built honeycomb-like structures without ever following - or even ...
