Robots can already mimic people, dogs, cats and insects. They can even walk on water. Now roboticists at the University of Washington have built a school of three robotic fish that swim and ...

The robots are coming for us. You already knew that, surely, but things are different now. They’re pretty fast, and I’m not just talking about self-driving vehicles (although those are quickly ...

Fish have a sensory system known as the lateral line, which allows them to detect movements and pressure gradients in the water. Scientists have now given a robotic fish its own version of that system ...
