Bacteria-scale robots that can run for months without human control are no longer a lab fantasy. Researchers have now built ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Micro-robotic manipulators with the ability to move in increments far smaller than the width of a human hair might be enlisted for a range of applications in research, ...

Bionaut Labs, a company that makes micro-robotics used in the treatment of central nervous system diseases, has raised $43 million in series B financing. Bionaut’s robots work to deliver drugs at deep ...

During my visit to Japan last month, meetings with financial institutions and technology labs in Tokyo revealed a trend quietly gaining momentum: swarm finance. I came to these conversations not as a ...

PULLMAN, Wash. — Two insect-like robots, a mini-bug and a water strider, developed at Washington State University, are the smallest, lightest and fastest fully functional micro-robots ever known to be ...

AMES, Iowa – The tiny tube circled an ant’s thorax, gently trapping the insect and demonstrating the utility of a microrobotic tentacle developed by Iowa State University engineers. “Most robots use ...

Researchers from Tampere University in Finland and Anhui Jianzhu University in China have made a significant breakthrough in soft robotics. Their groundbreaking study introduces the first toroidal, ...
