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
When science fiction authors imagined robots in the 20th century, many of them were huge imposing steel automatons. [Shane]’s designs for the Pretty Small Robot are quite contrary to that, …read more Continue reading Pretty Small Robot Is Capable, Nonetheless
