In their efforts to create smart robots, AI researchers have understandably tended to focus on the brains. But a group from MIT say AI can help us design better bodies for them too, and we should be ...

Researchers have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) system that enables a four-legged robot to adapt its gait to different, unfamiliar terrain, just like a real animal, in what is believed to ...

Using simulations, robots, and live fish, scientists at EPFL and Duke University have replicated the neural circuitry that ...

The "Morphobot" will be able to transform to get into inaccessible environments. A real-life transforming robot designed to mimic the movement of animals that roam Planet Earth will eventually change ...

An international research team has developed an innovative model that explains how elongated amphibious animals—such as eels—coordinate movement both in water and on land. Their study is published in ...

The event welcomed robot enthusiasts to prototype innovative ideas using the Enchanted Tools robot simulator, and then bring those ideas to life on one of only 20 Mirokai robots currently in existence ...

We’ve covered our fair share of animal robots from Japan in the last years, but PIGORASS, developed by Yasunori Yamada from the University of Tokyo surely stands out: Yamada has developed a ...

An international research team has unveiled significant findings regarding the locomotion of elongated amphibious animals. The researchers developed an innovative model that explains how elongated ...
