First wireless insect-size robot takes flight
American researchers unveiled the newest flying robot that will take to the air. A CNBC article reported that the microbot is the size and shape of a small flying bug. The insectoid robot can be controlled through wireless means like laser directors. These miniature aerial drones can be used to look for leaks in oil […]

Norwegian scientists are working on modifying electric cars so that blind pedestrians can hear them approaching
One of the qualities that makes an electric car so appealing to drivers also makes it a deadly danger to pedestrians. An electric vehicle makes very little noise, so blind pedestrians or people in noisy areas will never hear the silent car coming their way. So Norway wants all such cars to make enough noise to be heard. The Scandinavian […]

MIT researchers develop new method that makes it possible to mass produce tiny robots no bigger than a cell
American researchers can now produce large numbers of microscopic robots that are no bigger than a single cell. These synthetic cell (syncell) robots are made en masse by fracturing graphene sheets to produce pockets of the right shape and size in a process called “autoperforation.” The pockets produced by this process will be fitted with […]

Engineers develop small flying robots that can move objects 40x their weight
When confronted with a door, most flying robots will try to find another pathway into the room. A Swiss-American design called FlyCroTug will call in its buddy and work on the knob together to open the door, reported an article in Science Daily. The new aerial drone carries one of the most advanced mechanical manipulators […]

New modular robotic arms being attached to submarines to give deep-sea researchers better dexterity
Harvard researchers have developed a new type of robotic arm that can be fitted aboard deep sea submarines. The modular mechanical limbs can operate with a level of dexterity and finesse close to that of a human arm, a Science Daily article reported. The new arm is meant to be used with the soft robotic […]

Japanese researchers develop a prototype humanoid robot aimed at eventually replacing human laborers
The plummeting birth rate and aging workforce in Japan has forced its populace to resort to using robots for its increasing labor needs. An article on Geek.com reported that researchers have come up with a humanoid robot that will replace human workers in the construction industry. Created by the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science […]

“Mochibot” is an omnidirectional robot that moves like an amoeba
Many research teams are trying to build multi-legged robots that can walk like real animals. More people, however, are working on much more challenging bipedal robots that mimic the two-legged walking motion of humans. One Japanese research group decided to go the other way. An article on IEEE Spectrum reported that this group designed Mochibot, […]

Scary new AI can edit your face to accurately match dubbed voices
An internationally developed artificial intelligence (AI) will be able to alter the facial expressions of a person on video so that the movements match his or her voice. The AI is intended to be used in films and video conferences to improve the viewing experience, an article in the University of Bath news page reported. […]

Improved technology allows bipedal robots to maintain human-like balance
Texan researchers have just given bipedal robots the complex ability to balance their bodies in the same way that humans innately do. An article in Science Daily described how this will let robots catch up to their makers in terms of mobility. Humans are naturally capable of walking through a cramped or crowded area without putting […]
