A team led by Northwestern University’s Sam Kriegman built an AI system that designed a walking robot from scratch in seconds, then manufactured the result and watched it move across a lab bench. The ...

Robot builders make a convincing case that in 2001, robots are where personal computers were in 1980-poised to break into the marketplace as common corporate tools and ubiquitous consumer products ...

A team led by Northwestern Engineering researchers has developed the first artificial intelligence (AI) to date that can intelligently design robots from scratch. To test the new AI, the researchers ...

Robots are super interesting, but you probably shouldn’t start learning about them with a full-sized industrial SCARA arm or anything. Better to learn with something smaller and simpler to understand.

Dana Randall, ADVANCE Professor of Computing and Daniel Goldman, Dunn Family Professor of Physics, head a group of Georgia Tech researchers that use BOBbots (behaving, organizing, buzzing bots) to ...

Researchers from AMOLF's Soft Robotic Matter group have shown that a group of small autonomous, self-learning robots can adapt easily to changing circumstances. They connected these simple robots in a ...

Artificial intelligence can design an autonomous robot in 30 seconds flat on a laptop or smartphone. It’s not quite time to panic about just anybody being able to create the Terminator while waiting ...

Industrial robot adoption has reached a point of no return. Automated machinery has become an industry standard and will only become increasingly common as time goes on. As this trend continues, ...

[Lance] loves making simple robots with his laser cutter. He finds great satisfaction from watching his robots operate using fairly simple mechanisms and designs a whole slew of them inspired by ...

When I read about the Pidden brothers and their record-breaking robot, my reaction was equal parts awe and competitive ...
