A spinal cord injury in most vertebrates likely inhibits locomotion and induces paralysis—not so in eels. They not only possess the ability to move through water, and surprisingly, across land when intact,

The 3.3-foot-long (one meter) robot was developed by the UK’s National Robotarium in collaboration with Senai Cimatec in Brazil. Its flexible design allows it to bend and conform to subsea structures, making it safer and more efficient than traditional rigid robotic arms.

A bee-like robot currently under development at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is part of a new generation of bots inspired by creepy crawlies.

ChatGPT-like artificial intelligence is speeding up research and bringing humanoid robots closer to reality in China, home to many of the world’s factories.

It was found that eels use sensory signals from their bodies, such as stretch and pressure, to adapt to their environment.

The researchers used a Unitree’s Robotics H1 robot as the base body but then attached mechanical hands and wrists from the companies Inspire-Robots and Robotis.

Teaching robots to understand enough about the real world to allow them act independently has proved to be much more difficult than first thought.

MEVITA's design makes it both sturdy and easy to build by using a minimal number of parts that can all be found and bought online.

Teaching robots to understand enough about the real world to allow them act independently has proved to be much more difficult than first thought. The team behind the iCub robot believes it, like children, will learn best from its own experiences.
