Coordinating groups of underwater robots is difficult because communication below the surface is slow and unreliable. GPS ...

Scientists have revealed an adaptive robotic wing equipped with artificial nerves so sensitive to air currents that it outperformed a barn owl ...

An invention born from a contest at England's University of Surrey might be swimming us closer to cleaner oceans. Researchers have created a robotic fish that doesn’t just collect plastic pollution; ...

Researchers have taken inspiration from nature to create a robotic wing that can sense and adapt to changes in water to deliver unparalleled stability. Drawing on the adaptive movements of birds and ...

Microplastics are found in oceans and waterways all over the world. We are only just beginning to understand the damage they can do to all living things. Plastic is now a part of everyday life and has ...

By blending biology with advanced engineering, the new wing represents a shift toward softer, smarter machines that cooperate ...

Using simulations, robots, and live fish, scientists at EPFL and Duke University have replicated the neural circuitry that allows zebrafish to react to visual stimuli and maintain their position in ...

In a Keys community better known for fishing than circuit boards, two programs are shaping the next generation of innovators.
