Engineers at MIT and EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland, have designed a robot that can swim underwater and flap out of the water to continue flying through air, much like a diving bird. The robot can help scientists study the mechanics that enable these actions in aquatic aviators and may help launch a new class of aerial-…

Researchers at ETH Zürich demonstrated a 6-DOF electromagnetic levitator that catches a thrown ball mid-flight. Using neural networks instead of traditional analytical models, it predicts trajectories and controls position and orientation without symmetry assumptions or extensive calibration.

Columbia Engineering researchers have developed "Robot Metabolism," a system that enables robots to grow, repair themselves, and become more capable by incorporating parts from other robots or their surroundings. Using modular Truss Links, the robots self-assemble into increasingly complex structures and adapt to new c…
