When you think of tracked robots, you might think of bomb disposal robots or others used in military applications. You probably haven’t seen anything quite like this, however—it’s a “reconfigurable ...

Scientists at MPI-IS have developed electrically driven robotic components, called HEXEL modules, which can snap together into high-speed reconfigurable robots. Magnets embedded along the outside of ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. This modular robot can reshape itself, reconnect its structure, and move by rolling. A glimpse into the future of reconfigurable ...

Vehicles and buildings designed to enable survival in extreme environments, such as spacecraft, submarines and sealed shelters, heavily rely on systems for the management of carbon dioxide (CO 2).

Robotic systems have become indispensable for operations in nuclear environments, where extreme radiation, confined spaces and contamination risk render human intervention hazardous. These systems ...

(Nanowerk News) Scientists at the Max-Planck-Institute for Intelligent Systems (MPI-IS) have developed hexagon-shaped robotic components, called modules, that can be snapped together LEGO-style into ...
