Internals of 3D printed “print and fold” robot. [Image source: MIT CSAIL] Robot design traditionally separates the body geometry from the mechanics of the gait, but they both have a profound ...

Most people likely think of robots as complex electronic devices, made up of many parts that have to be assembled in factories. An experimental new non-electronic bot, however, can be 3D-printed all ...

Imagine a robot that can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off ...

Instead of using traditional hard parts like motors and wires, the entire robot is made from soft plastic material. One of ...

This innovative machine is powered by compressed gas and can be 3D-printed in a single process using just one material. According to its creators, the robot can literally "walk right off the 3D ...
