Assembling a future robot could be as simple as heating it up. Two new studies demonstrate how 3D-printed robots could fold into shape and assemble themselves after being exposed to heat.

While there are many potential uses for soft-bodied robots, the things are still typically only built in small experimental ...

But there’s plenty to be said for simple robots too, such as this adorable ESP32-driven live-streaming bot. Now it’s true ... supporting components. The 3D-printed case is nicely designed ...

Engineers have developed a new design strategy and 3D printing ... "meta-bots" can also explore hazardous environments. In a collapsed building, for example, a swarm of such tiny robots armed ...

have developed a shape-shifting robot that can take on over 1000 different forms using simple cubic shapes, inspired by the Japanese art of origami. To achieve this, the Transformer-Bot only needs ...

which evolved from a simple pair of legs to a full robot to the impressively detailed beast you see below — all with the help of a self-built 3D printer. Check out the robot in action below ...

Robotics strangely conjures up apocalyptic images of bots ... 3D visualization, operators can simply move the robot arm to desired waypoints or touch the arrow keys on the easy-to-use touchscreen ...

Building robots is so hard that they ... In building a four-wheeled bot that can drive up walls, Beardsley’s team used 3D printing for the wheels to get a working prototype quickly.

Assembling a future robot could be as simple as heating it up. Two new studies demonstrate how 3D-printed robots could fold into shape and assemble themselves after being exposed to heat. To make a ...
