Fish stranded on shore often look helpless, all flops and wriggles. But that clumsy scramble may follow a surprisingly ...

Evolutionary robotics unites principles of natural evolution with robotic engineering to generate novel body plans and control systems through iterative selection, variation and heredity. Rather than ...

What is it about a cheetah's build that enables it to run so fast? What gives the wolf its exceptional endurance? While these questions can be partly answered through animal experiments, many ...

The team designed a robot to test their results and found that the most efficient movement closely matched those of fish that ...

Robotics and artificial intelligence are converging at an unprecedented pace. As robotics systems increasingly integrate AI-driven decision-making, businesses are unlocking new efficiencies and ...

The system uses evolutionary algorithms and reinforcement learning to co-optimize the robot's shape, movement abilities and control software, ensuring it can perform tasks efficiently and effectively.

Professor Boyuan Chen poses with some of his 3D printed robots that were designed and built through his new platform called Text2Robot that allows people to simply tell a computer what kind of robot ...
