Who doesn’t love robotic spiders? Today’s biomimetic robot comes in the form of Miles, the quadruped spider robot from [_Robox]. Miles uses twelve servos to control its motion, three on each of its ...
The wheel is a revolutionary invention — as they say — but going back to basics sometimes opens new pathways. Robots that traverse terrain on legs are on the rise, most notably the Boston Dynamics Big ...
While Boston Dynamics may have pioneered the field of quadruped "robot dogs," Chinese company Unitree has definitely done a good job of jumping on board. Its latest industrial robot, the B2, offers ...
Listen, we’re all big fans of science here—but sometimes, science gets it wrong. Case in point: Japanese engineers have created an utterly creepy robot spider that’s also capable of flying around like ...
Meet Q8bot, a palm-sized robot that resembles a miniaturized version of the famous Boston Dynamics' Spot quadruped. Designed by Eric Yufeng, this small four-legged robot has all its parts, including ...
Flying robots are already things that people see on the internet or when a showcase is nearby, but this latest innovation from the University of Tokyo takes things to a whole new level, with its bot ...
Just when you thought you'd seen it all, ANYmal, the quadrupedal robot developed by ETH Zurich and commercialized by ANYbotics, is back to creep us out a bit, this time by conquering ladders. This ...
Scientists from the LASSIE project with their quadruped robot at White Sands National Park, New Mexico in August. The quadruped robot was able to scout and train autonomously. The work is part of NASA ...
While four-legged robots can achieve impressive feats, like pulling an airplane or climbing a fence, they still have a few limitations. In most cases, they need a fairly large surface to walk on. A ...
Chinese robotics company Deep Robotics has debuted a new rugged high-speed quadruped robot that can jump, climb and back-flip its way across difficult terrain with ease. The four-legged Lynx robot is ...
Quadruped "robot dogs" may move quite a bit like their canine counterparts on land, but they're not nearly as good at swimming (although some can walk underwater). Such is not the case with a new mini ...
