In the future, tiny flying robots could be deployed to aid in the search for survivors trapped beneath the rubble after a ...

BERKELEY, Calif. -- Understanding the aerodynamics that allow insects and hummingbirds to fly is the key to an invention that researchers hope will create a little buzz and a lot of flap. Biologists ...

Tiny robotic insects may soon become lifesaving tools in disaster zones. MIT researchers have ...

Engineers have developed a real-life Transformer that has the 'brains' to morph in midair, allowing the drone-like robot to smoothly roll away and begin its ground operations without pause. The ...

Researchers in California have created an incredibly small robot that needs no battery or wired power supply to zip through the air. Instead, it uses magnets to fly. A magnetic field produced by an ...

NASA and industry partners will fly and operate a commercial robotic arm in low Earth orbit through the Fly Foundational ...

A robot with bird-like legs that can walk, hop, leap and jump for take-off into flight has been designed in Switzerland in an engineering breakthrough that could enable aircraft to operate in ...

An artist's impression of the flying robot set to be deployed in China's Chang'e 7 moon mission in 2026. China plans to send a flying robot to the far side of the moon next year to search for the ...

The ATMO (aerially transforming morphobot) robot transforms from its flying, quadrotor configuration midair as it approaches the ground. It is then able to roll away in its driving configuration.
