Imagine a robot that can transform between "flying drone" and "wheeled rover" configurations. It could potentially be quite useful, but only if it works in real-world conditions. The ATMO bot was designed to do just that, by performing its transformation in mid-air.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, TechnologyTags: Caltech, Quadcopter, Transformable, Flight
While there are many potential uses for soft-bodied robots, the things are still typically only built in small experimental batches. Scottish scientists are out to change that, with a mass-production-capable soft bot that is 3D-printed in a single piece which then walks off of the print bed.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, TechnologyTags: Soft Robotics, University of Edinburgh, 3D Printing, Co
Back in 2022, we brought development news from a robotics startup looking to launch a smart garden helper sporting two jointed arms. A lot has changed since then, and as the commercial release approaches we take a fresh look at the Willow X.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, TechnologyTags: Garden, Lawnmowers, Artificial Intelligence, Maintenance
it is bright and colorful, unlike its traditional counterparts, and the device has five layers, each of which serves a specific function. The post FM radio that looks like a robot toy, signal tower or weathervane? that’s anomalo appeared first on designboom | architecture & design magazine.
What's 3.6 cm tall (1.4 in), and could one day be performing tasks such as walking through disaster site rubble looking for trapped survivors? It's Zippy, which is reportedly the smallest self-contained bipedal robot ever made – and it uses a simple but clever walking mechanism.Continue Reading
"That is so cool! But what do you do with it?" Those were the two main things that just about everyone said upon seeing my Unitree Go2 Pro robot for the first time. The latter is a hard question to answer, as the bot is kind of a tool and kind of a toy.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, TechnologyTags: Reviews, Unitree, Quadruped
It was just this past week that we told you about the T-Apex, a mobile tennis-ball-serving robot that tracks and assesses players' returns. Well, the Acemate bot goes a step further, by actually rallying back and forth with players to really hone their skills.Continue ReadingCategory: Sports, LifestyleTags: Robots, Tennis, Kickstarter, Training aid, Artificial Intelligence
Although soft-bodied robots themselves can be fairly simple, low-cost devices, they typically require complex onboard electronics to control their locomotion. Such is not the case with a new bot, however, which utilizes a phenomenon of physics to automatically move its inflatable legs.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, TechnologyTags: Soft Robotics, Inflatable, locomotion, Physics
Sports-conditioning robotics makers T-Apex has launched what could be quite literally a game changer for tennis players of any level, with its AI-powered robot coach that glides around the court and responds to your movement in real time.Continue ReadingCategory: Sports, LifestyleTags: Kickstarter, Tennis, Training, Coach, Smart technology
Quadruped "robot dogs" may move quite a bit like their canine counterparts on land, but they're not nearly as good at swimming (although some can walk underwater). Such is not the case with a new mini-dog-bot, however, which is an expert at doing the dog-paddle.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, TechnologyTags: Quadruped, Biomimicry, Swimming, Amphibious, locomotion
