Cell-sized robots can sense temperature, make decisions, and move autonomously using nanowatts of power—no external control ...
Scientists have created the world's smallest programmable robots. These microscopic machines swim in liquids and can sense ...
The robot is hard to see without a microscope. It’s small enough to rest on the ridge of a fingerprint and can operate in ...
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania and University of Michigan have created the world’s smallest fully programmable, autonomous robots: microscopic swimming machines that can independently ...
The robots, each the size of a single cell, casually turn circles in a bath of water. Suddenly, their sensors detect a change: Parts of the bath are heating up. The microrobots halt their twirls and ...
There are over 35 million households in the US with dogs and backyards, and it may be safe to say that not one of them enjoys cleaning up their pet’s mess. A firm has designed a robot that finds, ...
A robotic ocean float was lost under the Antarctic ice for eight months, but it miraculously reappeared, bearing some ...
A tiny robot so small it can barely be seen can still "sense, think, and act" autonomously, according to the engineers who ...
Achieving human-level dexterity during manipulation and grasping has been a long-standing goal in robotics. To accomplish this, having a reliable sense of tactile information and force is essential ...
