Researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) have unveiled a novel robotic structure, the "trimmed helicoid," inspired by the movements of elephant trunks and octopus ...

A robotic laboratory that can produce and test mechanical structures without human supervision has discovered the most energy-absorbing one measured so far, beating the previous record held by balsa ...

In the future, our aircraft, buildings, and homes may be constructed by robots similar to the prototype structure-building robot BILL-E. This innovative robot was created by graduate student Benjamin ...

We’ve invented robots who can obey you. And now we have ones who can just pretend to obey you. Over at Georgia Tech’s Mobile Robot Lab, researchers have spent over a decade studying potential military ...
