While it’s important to track and quantify airborne pollutants, most gas sensors are located at ground level, not up where the pollutants spread. A new lab-on-a-drone system is designed to address that limitation, by taking the tech to the sky.Continue… Continue reading Drone-mounted tech delivers real-time air pollution reports

Arizona’s Revolute Robotics has presented its autonomous Hybrid Mobility Robot (HMR), a whirling, spherical cage that can fly like a multicopter, or roll in any direction using two gyroscopic gimbal rings. It’s one heck of a thing to see in motion.Cont… Continue reading Autonomous, omnidirectional hamster ball robot can fly over obstacles
As much as a robot might excel at a certain mode of transport, as soon as conditions change it can become hopeless. Now engineers at Caltech have designed a new robot that can roll around on four wheels, flip them into rotors to fly, or transform for s… Continue reading Transforming robot drives, flies, crawls, stands, tiptoes and tumbles
