Roboticists at UC Berkeley have designed a small robot that can leap into the air and then spring off a wall, or perform multiple vertical jumps in a row, resulting in the highest robotic vertical ...

The design for the robot was determined through ‘a combination of mathematics, computer simulations, and laboratory experiments,’ the scientists said. . | Credit: The University of Manchester.

A jumping robot that resembles a miniature “Star Wars” Imperial walker could one day aid in scouting and search-and-rescue operations, researchers said. Researchers at the University of California, ...

Recent technological advances have opened new possibilities for the development of robotic systems, including spacecraft for the exploration of other planets. These new systems could ultimately ...

Springtails, small bugs often found crawling through leaf litter and garden soil, are expert jumpers. Inspired by these ...

If you say “jump” I say “how high?” – and a new robot from UC Santa Barbara says “over 100 ft (30 m).” The research team says that’s higher than anything else has ever jumped, be it robot or animal, ...

A team of engineers from the University of Illinois has published the first known study documenting the long-jumping motion of 3D-printed insect-scale robots. “To my knowledge, this is the first time ...

First unveiled in 2016, Salto the jumping robot stands at little less than a foot, but can vault over three times its height in a single bound. Now researchers have equipped the robot with a slew of ...

What just happened? Researchers at the University of Manchester have cracked the code on building a super-powered jumping robot that could soar over 120 meters into the air – way higher than the ...

If a robot is going to be tiny, then it better have a way of getting around the many obstacles that will block its way. A new type of robot takes a unique approach to doing so, by jumping like a click ...

ROPID is a cool looking robot designed and developed by Tomotaka Takahashi of Robo Garage at Kyoto University. Standing at 38 cm tall and weighing in at 1,600g, ROPID is a marvel of modern robotics ...

Roboticists have designed a small robot that can leap into the air and then spring off a wall, or perform multiple vertical jumps in a row, resulting in the highest robotic vertical jumping agility ...
