A cheetah's powerful sprint, a snake's lithe slither, or a human's deft grasp: Each is made possible by the seamless ...

Researchers at EPFL have created a robot elephant that can go bowling. The team led by Josie Hughes from the Computational Robot Design and Fabrication Lab, part of EPFL's School of Engineering, has ...

Through a field called geometric topology, mathematicians like me study all possible spaces in all dimensions. Whether trying ...

Researchers at the Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne have managed to create a robot elephant using a 3D-printable ...

Scientists use millions of foam lattice combinations to create a robotic elephant with a twisting trunk and jointed limbs.

Researchers have created microscale robots less than 1 millimeter in size that are printed as a 2D hexagonal 'metasheet' but, with a jolt of electricity, morph into preprogrammed 3D shapes and crawl.

Depending which hinges are activated, the robot can adopt various shapes and potentially wrap itself around other objects, and then unfold itself back into a flat sheet.

Technology Robots These 2D machines can shapeshift into moving 3D robots Mori3's triangular, modular design allows it to fuse with its companions, and could one day make it into space. By Andrew Paul ...
