From the outside, this pair of robotic legs by a team of United States-based researchers may look like part of an experiment to see how lifelike scientists can make robots seem. But a key component ...

Adding legs to robots that have minimal awareness of the environment around them can help the robots operate more effectively in difficult terrain, my colleagues and I found. We were inspired by ...

AI mapping with cameras and motion sensors guides careful movement around furniture, so cleaning stays precise without ...

A commercial robotic leg could potentially benefit both higher- and lower-mobility amputees, University of Michigan roboticists have shown for the first time. The leg provided the largest gains when ...

Whether this stair-climbing—and cleaning!—robot is the first true whole-home robot vacuum remains to be seen.

Even though biped robots get better and better all the time, many don't exactly have truly natural leg movements. One reason why comes down to the fact that robot legs, with the exception of a few ...
