Measuring just 200 by 300 by 50 micrometers — smaller than a grain of salt and roughly the size of a single-celled paramecium ...

A small do-it-yourself desk robot named Mo-chan has been shared with makers, demonstrating how individuals can build simple ...

Scientists have created robots smaller than a grain of salt that can sense their surroundings, make decisions, and move ...

In a joint advance from the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Michigan, engineers have designed the smallest fully programmable autonomous robots ever built – ...

Researchers have created microscopic robots so small they’re barely visible, yet smart enough to sense, decide, and move completely on their own. Powered by light and equipped with tiny computers, the ...

Solving a technical challenge that has stymied science for 40 years, researchers have built a robot with an onboard computer, sensors and a motor, the whole assembly less than 1 millimeter in size — ...

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

Building robots that operate independently at sizes below one millimeter is incredibly difficult,” says roboticist Marc ...
