Researchers at Penn and the University of Michigan have developed the world’s smallest, fully autonomous robots. The health ...

A breakthrough in medical technology could soon change how sinus infections are treated. Scientists have created micro-robots for sinus infection treatment that can enter the nasal cavity, eliminate ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. The design theory behind a pair of tiny insect-inspired obots may ...

Could a robot smaller than a microorganism actually think on its own? Well, scientists from the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Michigan have put all such doubts to rest by developing ...

Researchers introduces the first toroidal, light-driven micro-robot that can move autonomously in viscous liquids, such as mucus. This innovation marks a major step forward in developing micro-robots ...

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 ...

Scientists working at microscopic scales have relied on a single dominant fabrication technique to build complex 3D structures. Two-photon polymerization made it possible to sculpt objects far thinner ...

During my visit to Japan last month, meetings with financial institutions and technology labs in Tokyo revealed a trend quietly gaining momentum: swarm finance. I came to these conversations not as a ...
