Industrial robots have become a crucial tool for milling large and complex surfaces. The dynamic characteristics of a robotic structure significantly influence milling accuracy and efficiency.

A disciplined approach to industrial robot selection is to treat robots as engineered mechanical systems that must fit a ...

Bad news if you want to move to the moon or Mars: housing is a little hard to come by. Fortunately, NASA (as always) is thinking ahead, and has just shown off a self-assembling robotic structure that ...

Toys are useful resources for structural inspiration in science and engineering. Their fascinating structures provide new strategies for robotics, particularly in overcoming challenging obstacles and ...

Swiss cement producer Vigier Ciment has deployed ANYbotics’ ANYmal quadruped robot to automate inspections ...

Researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) have unveiled a novel robotic structure, the "trimmed helicoid," inspired by the movements of elephant trunks and octopus ...

Imagine you want to iterate on a shock-absorbing structure design in plastic. You might design something in CAD, print it, then test it on a rig. You’ll then note down your measurements, and repeat ...

Chinese researchers are developing an autonomous orbital fabrication robot inspired by NASA’s shelved SpiderFab concept, capable of building large structures directly in space. The system uses ...

Researchers reveal the physics of jumping shell structures, improving control and agility in soft robots inspired by the mechanics of a simple popper toy. The team meticulously analyzed the jumping ...

When viewed through the lens of performance, precision, and efficiency, robotic technology is often associated with reducing costs, timelines, and production processes. According to the International ...

Self-assembly exists across domains, from colloidal particles in material science to fire ants assembling themselves into rafts during floods. The rules that govern self-assembly between these ...
