In a paper published March 15, a group of researchers at MIT showed that using resilient muscle-like actuators and self-repairing technology can vastly improve the robustness of robotic bees.

Researchers from MIT have developed a bumblebee inspired soft robot that keeps flying even after cutting 20% of its wing tip.

Research shows that people anthropomorphize robots (that is to say they attribute human forms or personality to them). Kate Darling of MIT, a rising ... as participants’ self-assessment of ...

We’ve seen many creative 3D designs here on Hackaday and [jegatheesan.soundarapandian’s] Baby MIT Cheetah Robot is no exception. You’ve undoubtedly seen MIT’s cheetah robot. Well, ...

Researchers at MIT's Synthetic Biology Center have just succeeded writing multiple analog streams of real-time environmental data into the genetically transformed hardware of a distributed ...

But having a handful of robots, each with its hyper-specific uses, isn't always practical. To MIT, flexibility is vital. Enter WORMS, short for the Walking Oligomeric Robotic Mobility System.
