Ground Control Robotics (GCR) Inc., a startup company seeking to commercialize a centipede-like robot developed at Georgia Institute of Technology, may be on the verge of acquiring its first customers ...

Walking, talking humanoid robots that were once firmly the domain of science fiction are on their way. In fact, a Morgan Stanley report recently predicted that 13 million human robots will be among us ...

Nature has spent millions of years perfecting movement, efficiency, and survival. Engineers are now borrowing those evolutionary lessons to build robots capable of tackling some of humanity’s toughest ...

It’s about studying the intelligence of movement. Local scientists who built basic bots say they’re learning how animals evolved. And that knowledge, they say, may have deeper applications for humans.

Researchers have developed an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system that enables a four-legged robot to adapt its gait to different, unfamiliar terrain, just like a real animal, in what is believed to ...

What makes many animals run faster and better than robots or humans? Robots run faster than humans due to better agility, robustness, and range. Believe it or not, robot cockroaches can assist ...

The quest for agile quadrupedal robots is limited by handcrafted reward design in reinforcement learning. While animal motion capture provides 3D references, its cost prohibits scaling. Video learning ...

Of course, ethorobotics is not a substitute for humans carefully observing and studying other animals, but it's clear we can learn a lot from the use of robots in our attempts to learn more about a ...
