It would be strange enough to see a robot fold itself into arbitrary shapes and then just walk away. Then add to the mix that it’s a laser-cut origami robot and you have the new robotic technology ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Researchers at UC Santa Barbara and TU Dresden are pioneering a new approach to robotics by creating a collective of small robots ...

Researchers have delivered a significant upgrade to biological robots they created last year to the point at which they can now self-assemble a body from single cells as well as demonstrate other ...

Modular robots built by Dartmouth researchers are finding their feet outdoors. Engineered to assemble into structures that best suit the task at hand, the robots are pieced together from cube-shaped ...

Using M-blocks, MIT researchers have created a robotic technology that features cubes with no external moving parts, yet are fully capable of propelling themselves forward, jumping atop one another, ...

The combined mental prowess of Harvard University and MIT has yielded a special kind of self-assembling robot that folds up like origami and crawls away. The prototype, which is built almost entirely ...

Today, MIT researchers unveiled a new kind of robot called M-blocks, a group of self-assembling cubes with no external moving parts. The M stands for "modular," which means the cubes can form ...
