Researchers at Northwestern University in Illinois have demonstrated the world’s smallest remote-controlled walking robot, at just half a millimeter wide. Such tiny machines can bend, twist, crawl, walk, turn and jump without hydraulics or electricity…. Continue reading Smallest-ever remote-control walking robot uses shape-memory alloy
Ball and socket joints are useful, but making a part slide over the surface of a sphere, held by magnets, requires a lot of fiddling to get right. We admire …read more Continue reading Practice Makes Perfect for this Ball and Socket Robot
California’s Marine Advanced Robotics has made considerable progress on its remarkable Wave-Adaptive Modular Vessel (WAM-V) since we first saw these wild spider-boats 16 years ago on a list of urban legends. Legends and photoshops they were not – indee… Continue reading Spider-legged WAM-V suspension boats float over the waves
The buildup of bacteria deep in our teeth can cause infections in difficult-to-reach areas, and scientists at the Indian Institute of Science have developed a set of tiny cleaning robots they believe are up to the task. The nano-sized machines can be s… Continue reading Tiny dental nanobots generate heat to deep clean the teeth
We see a lot of wacky concept vehicles, but few as nutty as Hyundai’s Ultimate Utility Vehicles with their robotic stilt legs. And the company is dead serious about building them, too, with a new development and test facility to be built in Montana.Con… Continue reading Hyundai is actually building those wild unstoppable 4x4s on robot legs

In order to keep running at peak efficiency, solar panels regularly have to be cleaned of accumulated dust and other debris. Such panels can often be difficult to reach, though, which is why the Helios system uses not one but two drones to get the job … Continue reading Automated solar-panel-cleaning system doubles down on drones
If there’s one thing that can trigger people, it’s the printer racket. Printer manufacturers who put DRM-like features into their consumables are rightly viewed as Satan’s spawn, and while these …read more Continue reading Hackaday Links: February 27, 2022
Started by graduate students from the California Institute of Technology in the late 1930s, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) was instrumental in the development of early rocket technology in the …read more Continue reading Classic Chat: Arko Takes Us Inside NASA’s Legendary JPL
Though some of us are heavily assisted by smart phone apps and delivery, humans don’t need GPS to find food. We know where the fridge is. The grocery store. The …read more Continue reading “So Long,” Said All the Tank-Driving Fish
