A robot with bird-like legs that can walk, hop, leap and jump for take-off into flight has been designed in Switzerland in an engineering breakthrough that could enable aircraft to operate in ...

Researches used a model trained on parkour completions to teach this 100 pound robot to run through an obstacle course. Researchers from ETH Zurich are trying to close the mobility gap between robots ...

Earlier this year, we heard about some tiny robots that used a bio-inspired mechanism to jump high into the air. The makers of those devices have now tweaked the design, creating bots that jump very ...

Scientists have achieved a breakthrough in robotics by designing the first robotic leg equipped with “artificial muscles,” allowing the machine to move more like a human than previously possible. The ...

Imagine if you could simply type a sentence like “take a step back and jump,” and a robot or a digital character would immediately perform the action, without any coding or special training—just plain ...

Georgia Tech physicist Daniel Goldman (left) and graduate student Jeffrey Aguilar examine a simple robot built to study the dynamics of jumping. They may have found the secret to more efficient ...

Springtails, small bugs often found crawling through leaf litter and garden soil, are expert jumpers. Inspired by these hopping hexapods, roboticists in the Harvard John A. Paulson School of ...

Tiny robots can jump, swim, and move exactly where needed using bubbles. This way could change medicine, machines, and small ...

What just happened? Researchers at the University of Manchester have cracked the code on building a super-powered jumping robot that could soar over 120 meters into the air – way higher than the ...

Recent advancements in robotics have increasingly drawn on biological principles to develop machines capable of dynamic, agile motion. One area of significant progress is the design of jumping robots ...
