Thanks to the ancient art of paper folding, a little scientific ingenuity, and a whole mess of Shrinky Dinks, researchers have designed flat paper robots that can fold themselves into 3-D shapes ...

Called Rollbot, the untethered soft robot is built using liquid crystal elastomers and 3D-printed soft hinges that are encoded to fold based on the temperature, Caltech's official release notes.

Technology Robots These 2D machines can shapeshift into moving 3D robots Mori3's triangular, modular design allows it to fuse with its companions, and could one day make it into space. By Andrew Paul ...

In what may be the birth of cheap, easy-to-make robots, researchers have created complex machines that transform themselves from little more than a sheet of paper and plastic into walking ...

Weighing just one third of a gram, MIT's newest self-folding origami robot looks rather cute zipping around the surface of an arm, swimming through a tiny pool, or pushing tiny pink blocks toward ...

Just when we thought Guitar Hero had removed every shred of dignity from the once proud profession of "rocking out," along comes Paper Jamz to do away with all pretense. WowWee, known primarily ...

Odisha police are set to introduce robotic surveillance and 2D wall radars at five regional airports to enhance security. The robot offers high-resolution, thermal, and infrared monitoring, while ...

Scientists have discovered how to build robots out of rice paper, opening up brand new possibilities for robotic applications. A team from the University of Bristol discovered that the same ...

However, we don’t think the airlines will let [Sanahm] board with his sudoku-solving robot. The basic machine looks like a 2D plotter made with aluminum extrusion, with the addition of a ...

When we muck around with 3D-type stuff, it's usually limited to late-night sessions on Google Earth. But apparently these model simulations can get a little bit more interactive, if people start ...
