Evolutionary algorithms represent a class of optimisation techniques inspired by the principles of biological evolution. These methods iteratively modify candidate solutions using operations analogous ...

Modern robotics has reached a point where movement is no longer the main challenge – machines can already navigate, grasp, and operate in space with impressive precision. Yet enabling them to truly ...

What is it about a cheetah's build that enables it to run so fast? What gives the wolf its exceptional endurance? While these questions can be partly answered through animal experiments, many ...

Four of the General Robotics Lab's 3D-printed walking robots. They're all based on different animals. A team of researchers at Duke University have invented a program that uses written prompts to ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan have developed a modular, open-source robot that can rapidly change its body proportions to test how anatomy affects movement. Called The Robot of Theseus, or ...

Robotics and artificial intelligence are converging at an unprecedented pace. As robotics systems increasingly integrate AI-driven decision-making, businesses are unlocking new efficiencies and ...

Northwestern Engineering’s Sam Kriegman has received a Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) award from the US National Science Foundation (NSF), the foundation’s most prestigious honor ...
