After submerging the robot in underwater tunnels designed to mimic swimming near the sea floor, their tests indicate that ...

Biologists and engineers have joined forces to build a new robot bat that’s helping us understand how real bats use ...

Nature is, of course, the master engineer—been there, seen it, solved it. While we struggle to design buildings that don't ...

Researchers made a robot bat that demonstrates how real bats use echolocation to find prey at night, contributing to the fields of biology, engineering, and robotics.

Scientists have built microscopic, light-powered robots that can think, swim, and operate independently at the scale of ...

Researchers at the University of Tokyo and their collaborators have developed a digital laboratory system that fully automates the material synthesis and the structural and physical property ...

Adding robots to therapy can help autistic children develop foundational social skills like taking turns, making eye contact, and paying attention. Researchers in Europe added a learning robot to ...

Machine-learning models can speed up the discovery of new materials by making predictions and suggesting experiments. But most models today only consider a few specific types of data or variables.

A small robotic surgeon was successfully launched to the International Space Station last week. It was joined by a bunch of equally impressive experiments, including machine learning devices and ...

A competition calling for research projects involving so-called AI scientists shows just how fast this technology is moving.
