What will become of the consequence when the next ability of a robot is not possible to preload in the laboratory, but it has to be instructed by the person with whom it is going to share the space?

Most of nature – including humans – is symmetrical, and as creations reflect their creators, many robots we create today ...

Legged robots are ideal for navigating unstructured terrain. Unlike wheeled robot platforms, legged robots maintain mobility over rocks, slopes, and uneven surfaces. However, motion planning in such ...

Legged systems can execute agile motions by leveraging their ability to reach appropriate and disjoint support contacts, enabling outstanding mobility in complex and unstructured environments 1. This ...

Unlike traditional mobile robots, legged robots leverage their distinctive “leg” structures to traverse obstacles and adapt to uneven terrain, demonstrating exceptional mobility when confronted with ...

This weird robot has no face. In fact, there’s no obvious front or back. It does not trot like a dog (technically, 4-legged robots like those from Boston Dynamics or Unitree are called quadrupedal ...

Scientists at Duke University's General Robotics Lab have developed a rather unusual locomotion concept for robots and built a robot with 20 telescopic legs. This allows the robot to move uniformly.

I love me a bio-inspired robot that pulls off challenging feats by taking cues from the natural world. University of California, Berkeley (UCB) researchers have now shown off the one-legged Salto bot ...

Watch Unitree's G1 humanoid robot glide on rollerblades and ice skates, pulling off spins and flips while staying perfectly balanced in real time.

A $2,500 pair of humanoid robot legs built from 3D-printed parts and off-the-shelf components is not going to win marathons just yet. But such relatively inexpensive hardware could enable researchers ...
