It started with [CHORL] making a promise to himself regarding constructing a new combat robot: no spending of money on the new robot. Nested hole saws create concentric holes. Perfect for wheels. Here ...
This unusual 3D printed Rolling Robot by [ebaera] uses two tiny hobby servos for locomotion in an unexpected way. The motors drive the front wheel only indirectly, by moving two articulated arms in a ...
You know what’s cooler than printing robot parts on a 3D printer? Printing the whole freaking robot. Scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence ...
Picking the right simulation software is a big first step when you’re getting into mobile robotics. It’s not just about ...
Here’s a little robot that knows how to dress for the occasion. Scientists at MIT have built a bot that can, with a little origami action, change its shape from a walking bot to a rolling or even a ...
Robots have a tremendous potential, but if a way can't be found to manufacture them quickly, cheaply, and in large numbers, that potential may remain exactly that. To that end, MIT's Computer Science ...
Building robots is so hard that they’re still far from affordable as kitchen helpers. But a new way to make them is emerging. When a team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology wanted a tiny, ...
