When we think about robots, we think about complex electronic devices. We're conditioned to think about robots as sophisticated machines controlled by intricate programming and powered by advanced ...

A 3D printer that can build a large house in one day already exists, and it may be headed to the moon. Discover how this is possible and why it's important.

This a robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material. Imagine a robot ...

Epson debuts direct-to-shape inkjet and metal 3D printing at IREX 2025, targeting flexible, low-volume manufacturing and ...

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 ...

An experimental new non-electronic bot, however, can be 3D-printed all in one piece, and it's powered by nothing but air. The soft-bodied robot was created by postdoctoral scholar Yichen Zhai and ...

Researchers in California have created an incredibly small robot that needs no battery or wired power supply to zip through the air. Instead, it uses magnets to fly. A magnetic field produced by an ...

FLUID, an open-source, 3D-printed robot, offers an affordable and customizable solution for automated material synthesis, making advanced research accessible to more scientists. FLUID, an open-source, ...

Professor Boyuan Chen poses with some of his 3D printed robots that were designed and built through his new platform called Text2Robot that allows people to simply tell a computer what kind of robot ...

On a dusty test site in Australia, a spider-like robot is quietly rewriting the rules of construction, extruding walls in ...
