The new Kickstarter-funded, snap-together bots from Modular Robotics look like a swell toy. They’re also the best real-world example to date that an entire class of ultra-durable and adaptive ...

Packaging the power of modular robotics into an easy-to-use hardware interface, MOSS lets kids build their own machinations.

A robot to explore the unknown and automate tomorrow’s tasks and the ones after them needs to be extremely versatile. Ideally, it was capable of being any size, any shape, and any functionali… ...

Modular robots could succeed in situations like these by reorienting themselves to fit into much smaller spaces than traditional robots.

In cramped spacecraft or space stations, there typically isn't room to store multiple robots that are each designed for a specific task. The Mori3 system was designed with that fact in mind, as it ...

Bioinspired underwater robots that swim by undulating their bodies may be more energy-efficient than their rigid counterparts, but they're also quite difficult to build. That could soon change ...

ShengShu's Vidar technology revolutionizes humanoid robot training by using AI-generated synthetic video, reducing required ...

Other modular robot systems have successfully performed specific tasks in controlled environments, but these robots are the first to demonstrate fully autonomous behavior and reconfigurations based on ...

Modular robots link up like ants, forming bridges, stretchers, and shelters in outdoor tests with drones and human dummy rescues.

This state-of-the-art driving robot is designed to streamline testing across multiple vehicle types, including passenger cars, light commercial vehicles, vans, buses and heavy goods vehicles (HGVs).

"iMobot" will allow robotics researchers to study fields like artificial intelligence, biomimetics, and robot collaboration without having to build the hardware.
