Harvard and MIT engineers, showing a reckless disregard for the robocalypse, have created origami robots that can self-assemble themselves -- from a flat piece of paper and polystyrene -- and walk ...

Researchers at MIT’s Center for Bits and Atoms (CBA) have created robotic subunits called "voxels" that can self-assemble into a rudimentary robot, and then collect more voxels to assemble larger ...

John OFallon, one of Prof. Dalila Megherbi’s PhD students, presented one of their published research work titled “Self-Assembling Modular Robotic Training Using Concurrent Dual Machine Learning” at ...

Bad news if you want to move to the moon or Mars: housing is a little hard to come by. Fortunately, NASA (as always) is thinking ahead, and has just shown off a self-assembling robotic structure that ...

It's now actually not that unusual to see quadruped robots that have powered wheels for feet, allowing them to either walk or roll as the situation dictates. The modular D1 is different, though, in ...
