A little bug-inspired robot created by a team of engineers at the University of Colorado Boulder has the potential to someday aid first responders during disasters. The robot’s name is CLARI, which ...

Scientists build insect-inspired soft robots on water using HydroSpread, a new fabrication method for flexible films.

Water striders are fascinating to watch, as they scoot across the water while supported by surface tension. Scientists have now built a tiny robotic version of the insect, which utilizes a ...

Sorry MIT, but you’re not the only university in Massachusetts bringing sci-fi technology to reality. Recently, researchers from Harvard’s microrobotics lab showed off the world’s first insect-sized ...

Sean Humbert is unlocking the biological secrets of the common housefly to make major advances in robotics and uncrewed aerial systems (UAS). A professor in the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical ...

An insect-sized robot powered by tiny explosions can crawl, leap and carry a load many times its own weight. The robot, developed by materials engineer Robert Shepherd at Cornell University in Ithaca, ...

From pollination to search and rescue, these machines could transform how humans interact with nature. But their potential also raises new ethical and scientific questions.

Mad scientists have it so easy now. Back in days of yore, if you wanted to create a death ray or giant marauding robot, you had to find suitably shady investors. Today’s young inventors simply turn to ...

Bats are incredibly agile and maneuverable flyers, but they are also uncooperative research subjects. Since bats are unlikely to follow directions from humans, University researchers developed a ...
