Across a Swiss meadow and into its forested edges, the drone dragged a jumbo-size cotton swab from a 13-foot tether. Along its path, the moistened swab collected scraps of life: some combination of ...

The first robot, dubbed the HydroFlexor, can paddle across water with fin-like motions, while the second robot, dubbed the HydroBuckler, “walks” forward using buckling legs, to mimic the gait of water ...

The hangar doors in Bavaria opened to reveal something Europe hasn’t seen before: a full-size autonomous combat jet designed and built on European soil. Helsing, the German AI defence firm, has ...

RoboFalcon 2.0 mimics bird wing motions Robot achieves self-takeoff and low-speed flight Wing system couples flapping, sweeping, folding ...

If you're in the mood for a high-flying miniature sandbox shooter with some surprising tactical depth, Cubit and Epic's Infinitesimals could do the trick.

From free activities to animal encounters, we’ve selected some of the best things to do in the capital this autumn ...

MIT researchers are building robot insects to mimic the way real bugs fly, crawl, and sense their environment. These micro-machines are designed to test lightweight materials, flexible electronics, ...

A new version of a bird-inspired flying robot has demonstrated the ability to take off without assistance and sustain flight at lower speeds—an advance that moves bio-inspired aerial robotics closer ...

The Robo Falcon 2 robot falcon has been given new wing kinematics. Lifelike takeoffs and slow flight are now possible.

As an emerging frontier in biomimetic intelligent microsystems, insect-scale flapping-wing micro aerial vehicles (FWMAVs) demonstrate significant ...
