Bio-inspired termite robots build complicated buildings without structure blueprint, with amazing simple rules, Harvard researchers say in Science ...

Build your own Palm robot -- it's easy Researchers at Carnegie Mellon's Robotics Institute offer a do-it-yourself kit and online instructions -- in 15 steps, you've got a Palm Pilot robot.

Robot sumo is not as easy as it looks. The robots need to push their opponent out of the ring, so they are equipped with a host of sensors. The main challenge is their autonomy—they are not ...

The Shonkbot is what the team at Bristol Hackspace came up with for a robot that is obvious in its working and encouragingly easy to build, even for kids (with supervision).

In what may be the birth of cheap, easy-to-make robots, researchers have created complex machines that transform themselves from little more than a sheet of paper and plastic into walking automatons.

PyRobot could simplify the way researchers program their machines, and could even make it easier for non-robotics types to jump into the field.

Make way for robots Changing our environment in small, simple ways will help robots collaborate more effectively (and safely) with humans.

Inspired by Swarming Termites, Robots Can Build Without Supervision The robots can stack blocks to make simple structures without a central plan.

Robots make everything look easy, but there's actually a lot of work going on under the hood to make even simple tasks happen. But through impeccable design, practice, and some good programming ...

In the future, swarms of robots could be called in to build impressive structures or clean up dangerous messes too small to be seen with the naked eye.
