Scientists are using GenAI models to improve robotic designs and their motions. MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) applied generative AI to create working robots.

Typical jumping behavior of a spherical shell obtained from simulation: it jumps from the inverted configuration back to its original shape. Inspired by a simple children's toy, a jumping popper toy, ...

It’s the metal, plastic, and wires that give the robot its shape and allow it to move around. Engineers in this field design ...

A DARPA-sponsored initiative to build soft-bodied robots has led to some pretty impressive breakthroughs in robotics research, ranging from being able to access previously unreachable areas to ...

Kawasaki recently revealed a computer-generated concept for the Corleo, a “robotic horse.” A video shows the automated equine galloping through valleys, crossing rivers, climbing mountains, and ...

A 301 mg soft robot jumps continuously under constant light without batteries or electronics, using snap-through buckling and self-shadowing to create an autonomous feedback loop. (Nanowerk Spotlight) ...
