Tiny robots small enough to slip through blood vessels are moving from speculative fiction into the medical lab, promising ...

Tiny drones could one day crawl through collapsed buildings to help find survivors after earthquakes. These micro-robots, ...

Could a robot smaller than a grain of sand really hoist a load heavier than a bowling ball? In South Korea, engineers have ...

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a micro-flapping-wing robot that exhibits ...

How small can robots get, and can they assist in human body needs? This is what a team of researchers led by the University of Tel-Aviv hope to better understand as they examined the development of a ...

Paramecium and certain other microbes move through liquid by whipping back and forth hairlike appendages known as cilia. Scientists have now developed a new type of synthetic cilia, which could find ...

Researchers from Tel Aviv University, Israel, have created a micro-robot the size of a single biological cell that navigates using both electricity and magnetic fields and can identify and capture a ...

A flying micro-robot has been developed by researchers at the University of Waterloo in Ontario. A research team lead by professor Mir Behrad Khamesee manipulated magnetic fields to levitate and move ...

The tiny robot, only 10 microns across, is able to navigate within a biological sample, identify different types of cells, capture them selectively, and transport them for further analysis.

What walks like a crab, is as small as a flea and can be remote-controlled? The latest gee-whiz wireless gizmo designed by robotics engineers. The walking robot, created to look like a peekytoe crab, ...

Servo robots come in different manners or basis. For this project, the system was integrated to perform in micro-time scale. The servo motor robot actuate movements giving the robot arm precise angle ...

Researchers have developed a hybrid micro-robot, the size of a single biological cell (about 10 microns across), that can be controlled and navigated using two different mechanisms -- electric and ...
