Modular self-reconfigurable robotics encompasses systems in which individual robotic units can autonomously adjust their configuration to adapt to varying tasks and environmental conditions. These ...

Here’s an interesting comment from MIT’s Alfonso Parra Rubio, “Treating soft versus hard robotics is a false dichotomy.” For, I suppose, obvious reasons, thinking around technology tends to be a ...

igus develops and produces motion plastics. The Cologne, Germany-based company said its self-lubricating, high-performance polymers can reduce costs. igus claimed that it is the global market leader ...

Designed as a lightweight, top-mounted system, Ghost Robotics said the Manipulator Arm enables the Vision 60 to perform complex tasks.

Bioinspired underwater robots that swim by undulating their bodies may be more energy-efficient than their rigid counterparts, but they're also quite difficult to build. That could soon change however ...

Recorded on January 10, 2013. Ever wanted to build your own robot, but couldn’t because it’s too complicated? Well, with Modular Robotics’ Cubeletes it’s as simple as it gets. LIMITED TIME: Save $300+ ...

If a soft-bodied robot uses rigid actuators to move its body, then it isn't really soft now, is it? An experimental new caterpillar-inspired bot gets around that conundrum by using soft, collapsible ...

MIT engineers have designed a walking lunar robot cleverly inspired by the animal kingdom. The “mix-and-match” system is made of worm-like robotic limbs astronauts could configure into various ...

Data from the 2025 World Robot Conference show that China is the world's largest robot producer, with industrial robot output growing from 33,000 units in 2015 to 556,000 in 2024 and service robot ...

The LawnMeister H1 modular autonomous lawnmower has been announced. The modular lawnmower is manufactured by Heisenberg Robotics and it features watering and leaf-blowing modules. You can deploy the ...

Move over Lego! Cubelets, inch-sized modular cubes that can be snap assembled into autonomous robots, are here -- and once you (or your kid) sees them in action, the hand-me-down, attic-dwelling box ...
