Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Taking a cue from nature's evolutionary path from water to land, the Organic Robotics Lab and the Archer Group at Cornell ...

Researchers at Cornell University have been working on batteries that can 'flow' through the internal structures of robots, kind of like how blood in humans' veins powers our bodies. The team has been ...

America’s top minds are apparently putting their all into developing space technology — but we’ve gotta admit, we wouldn’t really have had this in mind. As the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ...

MIT engineers have designed a walking lunar robot cleverly inspired by the animal kingdom. The “mix-and-match” system is made of worm-like robotic limbs astronauts could configure into various ...

MIT engineers have developed a universal robotic parts kit called WORMS, or the Walking Oligomeric Robotic Mobility System, designed to be easily configured and reconfigured for various missions on ...

ITHACA, N.Y. – In the same way that terrestrial life evolved from ocean swimmers to land walkers, soft robots are progressing, too, thanks to recent Cornell University research in battery development ...

Researchers at Cornell University on Monday showcased a pair of bio-inspired robotics running on a hydraulic fluid-powered battery. The redox flow battery (RFB) also mimics biological functions, as it ...

Imagine a robot. But instead of sleek metal on wheels, with an elaborate blueprint of circuits and whirring gears, it’s a humble blob: a gelatinous lump stuck to the ground, which trudges around by ...

GE Aerospace has introduced the Sensiworm, a bio-inspired soft robot designed to enhance inspection processes within jet engines. Unlike conventional inspection tools like video borescopes, which face ...
