Earlier this year, we heard about some tiny robots that used a bio-inspired mechanism to jump high into the air. The makers of those devices have now tweaked the design, creating bots that jump very ...

Get ready to be amazed by the world's highest jumping robot, an engineering marvel that defies gravity! In this exciting video, we delve into the groundbreaking technology behind this extraordinary ...

You may not know what a springtail is but man, those little things can jump! Scientists have now copied the creatures' jumping mechanism in a small robot that could one day explore places that people ...

In a test of 60 jumps, the robot made a perfectly controlled landing 52 times, sat back on its "heel" five times, and fell over just three. Controlling the landing has hugely boosted Salto's jumping ...

The average human is unable to jump more than two or three feet (via The Exercisers). In the animal kingdom, we are vastly outnumbered by creatures with superb jumping abilities — and the robotics ...

Springtails, small bugs often found crawling through leaf litter and garden soil, are expert jumpers. Inspired by these hopping hexapods, roboticists in the Harvard John A. Paulson School of ...

Recent advancements in robotics have increasingly drawn on biological principles to develop machines capable of dynamic, agile motion. One area of significant progress is the design of jumping robots ...

Bugs are creepy. You don't need to be an entomophobe to empathize with that sentiment. But bugs are also inspiring -- to researchers in China, that is. Taking a cue from nature, a team of engineers ...

Researches used a model trained on parkour completions to teach this 100 pound robot to run through an obstacle course. Researchers from ETH Zurich are trying to close the mobility gap between robots ...

Did you envision a giant machine assembling cars, Data from "Star Trek," C-3PO from "Star Wars" or "The Terminator"? Most of us would probably think of something massive -- or at least human size. But ...

In the summer of 2021, atop the coastal cliffs of Santa Barbara, California, Chris Keeley, then an undergraduate at the nearby university, crouched to pull a bundle of metal and rubber out of his ...
