Scientists have achieved a breakthrough in robotics by designing the first robotic leg equipped with “artificial muscles,” allowing the machine to move more like a human than previously possible. The ...

The hopping robot, which is smaller than a human thumb and weighs less than a paperclip, has a springy leg that propels it off the ground, and four flapping-wing modules that give it lift and ...

One of EMBUR's legs, part-way through a stroke As the leg sweeps away from the robot's body on the "power stroke," it lengthens, drawing the fabric tight – this allows the fabric to act sort of ...

The first step was to perform experiments to determine the effects of oscillation on the newly designed robotic legs and leg joints ... damping upon landing, drawing lessons from stingless ...

I’ll see your arm and raise you an arm and two legs. It was the battle of the bots on the CES show floor as robot vacuum manufacturers Dreame and Roborock each added limbs to their rival robovacs.

“The RAVEN robot can walk, hop over obstacles, and do a jumping takeoff like real birds,” says Won Dong Shin, an engineer leading the project. The key challenge in attaching legs to drones was ...
