Evolution has already found solutions to lots of problems, so engineers more often borrow ideas from nature instead of ...

A dexterous robotic hand capable of mimicking human hand movements for factory automation applications has been developed by ...

Tools that offer early and accurate insight into plant health—and allow individual plant interventions—are key to increasing crop yields as environmental pressures increasingly impact horticulture and ...

Steel measuring tape is an interesting material, in that it's rigid enough to hold its shape when extended, but flexible enough that it gives way under pressure. Scientists have taken advantage of ...

It's a game a lot of us played as children -- and maybe even later in life: unspooling measuring tape to see how far it would extend before bending. But to engineer, this game was an inspiration, ...

OnRobot has announced its new VGP30 vacuum gripper. This powerful and robust 30 kg (66 lbs.) payload gripper is designed to excel at palletizing boxes and handling irregular shapes and porous surfaces ...

Blue tentacle-like arms attached to an Astrobee free-flying robot grab onto a "capture cube" in this image from Feb. 4, 2025. The experimental grippers demonstrated autonomous detection and capture ...

Mimic Robotics unveiled the M1 robotic hand and Wearable U1, betting that a full-stack approach to AI, hardware, and training ...

Energy remains a significant factor in industrial production processes. High levels of energy consumption make production more expensive and exacerbate the climate crisis. A new type of robot ...
