Modular self-reconfigurable robotics encompasses systems in which individual robotic units can autonomously adjust their configuration to adapt to varying tasks and environmental conditions. These ...

Numerous new robotic technologies have debuted over the past two decades, but the new ATRO robot system from Beckhoff may be one of the first modular, DIY (do-it-yourself) robot technologies for the ...

It's now actually not that unusual to see quadruped robots that have powered wheels for feet, allowing them to either walk or roll as the situation dictates. The modular D1 is different, though, in ...

It would have sounded quite improbable only a few years ago that a humanoid robot could fluently move from making coffee in a ...

With ATRO, Beckhoff presents a breakthrough concept for robotics applications. This modular system enables extreme flexibility in robot kinematics to fit essentially any application with payloads up ...

As cities continue to expand and infrastructure projects grow more ambitious, the construction sector is facing a crippling problem: There aren’t enough workers. The U.S. alone will need to attract ...

The right motor and a modular unit can deliver high torque performance, accuracy and repeatability, plus easy implementation into articulating arms. If you’re planning to build a collaborative robot ...

Bioinspired underwater robots that swim by undulating their bodies may be more energy-efficient than their rigid counterparts, but they're also quite difficult to build. That could soon change however ...

READY Robotics developed a customizable palletizing system called READY Cells: Palletizing that can support up to 30 packages per minute. It is robot-agnostic, making it interoperable with most ...

MIT complains that designing a robot hand is time-consuming and takes a lot of iterations. They want to improve that using a unique approach by giving a modular hand tactile sensors. They claim this ...

Ultra-thin drive for High Watts per Kilogram (HaWK) solar array system helps boost orbit average power available to CubeSats by over 300% and enables new functionality to support high performance ...
