The robot can also be controlled over Bluetooth using an app [jegatheesan] developed in MIT App Inventor. Overall, the mechanics could use a bit of work — [jegatheesan’s] baby cheetah probably ...

MIT researchers are designing robotic insects capable of swarming from mechanical hives to handle precise pollination tasks efficiently. The team designed their tiny, flying robots to be ...

CAMBRIDGE, MASS. (WHDH) - A new robot created by a team of researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the University of Notre Dame could save lives. The robot operates with a ...

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers have made a soft, origami-inspired robot which can pick up objects 100 times heavier than itself. In a video released on Wednesday ...

The cheetah was the inspiration for the "cheetah robot," created by researchers at MIT and funded by the US military. Crafting the robot took five years of designing, testing, and tweaking.

This new 20-pound robot from MIT, meanwhile, is able to bend and swing in the air thanks to power it draws from a dozen electric motors — three motors each for the four individual legs.

Internals of 3D printed “print and fold” robot. [Image source: MIT CSAIL] Robot design traditionally separates the body geometry from the mechanics of the gait, but they both have a profound ...

The first versions will be able to do a small number of tasks before getting software upgrades from something akin to an App Store ... Scientists at MIT have trained a robotic hand using new ...
