Walking on two legs is hard for robots, but you can make the job easier by reducing gravity. How do you do that? Well, the Aerial-Bipedal robot from the University of Tokyo has a quadcopter for a ...

Getting a robot to balance and walk on two feet is a massive challenge, as the DARPA Challenge revealed. But it turns out it’s a little less tricky when you focus on just the legs, as the ...

The project started with a simple observation — walking robots are constrained by having to hold themselves up — and removing that constraint make success much easier.

While it took nature billions of years to evolve the first walking species, the new algorithm compressed evolution to lightning speed — designing a successfully walking robot in mere seconds. But the ...

A maximum reduced walking robot runs at a speed of 0.8 km/h. This does not require a lot of mechanics.

Marty is a fully programmable, WiFi enabled walking robot for kids, makers, educators, and for anybody who just wants a cute robot. Marty makes learning about programming, electronics, and ...

The platform enables non-experts to specify a robot’s operational and structural parameters using simple descriptive input.
