Bittle X turns robotics into an accessible, hands-on learning experience. Students or hobbyists can assemble it, program it ...

Seeker BOT is nothing but a simple light seeking robot. In this case, light source is the object and theSeeker BOT is moving towards it by comparing the light intensity on left and right sides. Making ...

As things get smaller, we can fit more processing power into devices like robots to allow them to do more things or interact with their environment in new ways. If not, we can at least build them for ...

Robots need love, too. That’s why MIT researchers have added a touch-force sensor to the robotic Baxter, allowing him to register gentle caresses, tender hand-holding, and the sense the he is loved ...

Scientists have developed a robot eye that can adjust to sudden changes in light much faster than humans. This new sensor could make robots and cars safer. Human eyes need a certain amount of time to ...

Some robots can swim. Others can kick, fetch, jump or fly. But the latest development in the field of robotics lets machines carry out an activity that is somewhat less athletic: plugging in a USB ...

Sphero has announced another rolling ball robot called the Sphero Bolt. The Sphero Bolt follows in the company’s ethos of having a commitment to education-based products, but it comes with some ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. As almost everyone knows, robots have been widely adopted in manufacturing to implement faster more efficient ...

Robotic surgery is no longer the stuff of science fiction. However, these robots can't really feel their way around -- the need for super-small mechanisms rules out existing approaches to touch.

Luggage lying around unattended at an airport justifiably triggers the jitters. The hazardous task of getting up close to inspect what could potentially be a bomb that could explode any time ...
