If you want an easy project to complete in a day or so, or something to introduce kids to the world of robots and electronics, make this light-following robot your weekend project.

Actuators make robots leap and run and do backflips and lift 500-pound pipes (different robots, mind you, thank God). The electric car? That’s impressive as hell, but just the beginning.

Hey robot futurist! We've got one word for you: Actuators. They're the motorized joints that make robots strong, agile, and precise and they're getting better all the time.

ShengShu's Vidar technology revolutionizes humanoid robot training by using AI-generated synthetic video, reducing required ...

A team of researchers has come up with a system that allows anyone to make a walking robot using only a 3-D printer and an off-the-shelf motor.

Technology nowadays can really spur creativity and there's nothing you can't do with a 3D printer, CAAD and some skills. Like a surveillance military robot.

The old song tells us that the leg bone is connected to the hip bone, but how are we to know if the articulated cam can connect to the brushless motor?

Adcock explains in his post that this is the latest feature added to his company’s robots as part of their super-smart new Helix AI system. In an earlier video, two Figure robots powered by Helix ...

Part 1: • One-Motor CVT Robot Arm #1 - Gearbox Last time, I started a project to build a robot arm which only has one main drive motor, and uses a series of clutches to drive three separate axees.

The robot moves, but with a jerking motion, and keeps making unintended turns. The primary cause of this seems to be the wobbly rotors, which mean that the output torque fluctuates throughout the ...

IT WOBBLES like a jelly, but could make robots more flexible than ever before. Soft artificial muscles have been used to make a motor with only a few parts, and no gears, bearings or cogs. The ...
