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.

It is projected that there are more than 57 million amputees worldwide and only about 5 percent of them have access to prosthetic care and technology. Those that do have access to prostheses are often ...

What if building a robotic arm didn’t require a massive budget or a team of engineers? Imagine a device capable of delivering smooth, precise movements for studio applications, constructed for less ...

See how an autonomous robot created a shock-absorbing shape no human ever could -- and what it means for designing safer helmets, packaging, car bumpers, and more. Inside a lab in Boston University's ...

It’s the Hero he deserves. For most of his life, Praveen Gowtham avoided prosthetics. The Bronx physicist, who lost part of his arm at 1 week old due to a birth defect, found artificial limbs ...

The 39.25 mm robotic arm uses 3D printing and micro servo motors to grip and lift tiny objects with precision.

Inside a lab in Boston University’s College of Engineering, a robot arm drops small, plastic objects into a box placed perfectly on the floor to catch them as they fall. One by one, these tiny ...

While there are many potential uses for soft-bodied robots, the things are still typically only built in small experimental batches. Scottish scientists are out to change that, with a ...

Italy-based pioneer in large-format robotic 3D printing Caracol just raised a $40 million Series B round and is going all in on the United States. CEO Francesco De Stefano calls the U.S. the company’s ...

An egg-cracking beam relies on a hyperelastic torque reversal mechanism similar to that used by mantis shrimp and jumping fleas. Credit: Seoul National University. We usually think of robots as being ...
