Most people likely think of robots as complex electronic devices, made up of many parts that have to be assembled in factories. An experimental new non-electronic bot, however, can be 3D-printed ...

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 ...

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 ...

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.
