Aerial microrobot can fly as fast as a bumblebee
In the future, tiny flying robots could be deployed to aid in the search for survivors trapped beneath the rubble after a ...
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a micro-flapping-wing robot that exhibits ...
In an age of increasingly advanced robotics, one team has well and truly bucked the trend, instead finding inspiration within the pinhead-sized brain of a tiny flying insect in order to build a robot ...
One of the most commonly suggested uses for tiny robots is the search for trapped survivors in disaster site rubble. The insect-inspired CLARI robot could be particularly good at doing so, as it can ...
Researchers have unveiled a microrobot that flies with speed and agility, mirroring the motion of real insects; these ...
Inspired by nature's adaptability, researchers at CU Boulder have developed CLARI, short for Compliant Legged Articulated Robotic Insect, a versatile robot capable of altering its shape to navigate ...
A tiny micro-robotic insect wing hangs off the front of a circuit board. The idea of being a “fly on the wall” in an enemy headquarters has been a goal of intelligence agencies for as long as there ...
Insects in nature not only possess amazing flying skills but also can attach to and climb on walls of various materials. Insects that can perform flapping-wing flight, climb on a wall, and switch ...
Monisha Ravisetti was a science writer at CNET. She covered climate change, space rockets, mathematical puzzles, dinosaur bones, black holes, supernovas, and sometimes, the drama of philosophical ...
In their guest blog, mechanical engineering professor Hassan Masoud and doctoral student Mitch Timm share how they built a tiny, self-powered robot inspired by water-skimming insects. For centuries, ...
MIT researchers developed an aerial microrobot that can fly with speed and agility comparable to real insects. The research ...
