Self-reconfigurable modular robotics systems comprise autonomous modules that can dock, undock and rearrange to form varied morphologies tailored to specific tasks and environments. Inspired by ...

It's now actually not that unusual to see quadruped robots that have powered wheels for feet, allowing them to either walk or roll as the situation dictates. The modular D1 is different, though, in ...

During CES 2026, Yarbo presented the latest expansion of its modular yard robot ecosystem with the public debut of the Yarbo M Series. The company introduced its development roadmap and long-term ...

Researchers at Dartmouth College have created modular robots that can assemble into structures and move through real-world terrain. Built from cube-shaped blocks, the robots combine rigid rods with ...

Most robots have fixed body designs that cannot adapt to new environments or survive damage, making them fragile outside controlled settings. Researchers used AI-driven evolution and Lego-like modular ...

In a move that inches us just a little closer to the singularity, engineers have developed robots that can grow, self-repair, and morph by absorbing parts from other robots. They can also help their ...

Microsoft Research has given a glimpse at some of its prototype data center robotics efforts. In a paper for Hotnets, the team said that "this marks the beginning of a fundamental shift in how we ...

Robotic voxel-based construction uses modular blocks for efficient, sustainable building, reducing material use and carbon ...

An often-overlooked robot component that plays a critical role in shaping the efficiency and sustainability of these mechanical marvels is the end of arm gripper. Traditionally crafted from heavy ...
