Robots have steadily become smaller, cheaper, and more capable—but until now, true autonomy stopped at around the millimeter ...

Scientists working at microscopic scales have relied on a single dominant fabrication technique to ...

Researchers have succeeded in developing the smallest fully autonomous robot in history. It measures less than 1 millimeter and can swim underwater for months powered only by light.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Micro-robotic manipulators with the ability to move in increments far smaller than the width of a human hair might be enlisted for a range of applications in research, ...

In a nutshell: Researchers have developed minuscule robots that can "assemble" and behave like a collective, building new shapes and tools. Inspired by nature, the team identified and developed the ...

Cornell University researchers have introduced a new AI-powered framework that makes robots better at learning tasks. It’s called RHyME, which stands for Retrieval for Hybrid Imitation under ...
