University of Science and Technology of China has made a fascinating development in robotics, with the octopus-inspired robotic arm led by Nikolaos Freris. It combines the dexterity of a human hand ...

In assembly lines, robots are programmed to perform a single task with high precision. Consider the example of automobile assembly, depicted in the picture above. Cars move along a conveyor belt, ...

One in four people suffers a stroke during their lifetime, according to the World Stroke Organisation. Stroke survivors with ...

If you are thinking of building your very own desktop robot arm and were intrigued by the project published yesterday which took you through the process of creating a mini robotic arm using Arduino.

On most consumer 3D printers, the print head moves by sliding horizontally along rails, and vertically along rods. The Plybot is different, though, in that it "holds" its head in two robotic arms.

Back in the previous century, one of the most common expectations about the future was that it would include robot assistants for all. The Jetsons had one, the crew of the C-57D had one, the Robinsons ...

If you are interested in building your very own 3D printed robot arm you might be interested in a new set of design files that allow you to build the ARCTOS. The plans are available to purchase and ...

Scientists in Australia have developed a flexible soft robotic arm that 3D-prints cells onto organs, thereby circumventing many of the risks associated with surgery. A beta version of the ...

Houston’s first 3D-printed community is about to start production. The developers of Zuri Gardens bill the project as ...

We see a lot of 3D printers here at Hackaday, but as over the years the 3D printer has moved from being an exciting item in its own right to being an everyday tool, it’s increasingly rare for us to ...
