Adding legs to robots that have minimal awareness of the environment around them can help the robots operate more effectively in difficult terrain, my colleagues and I found. We were inspired by ...

Published today in Nature, “ Robots that can adapt like animals,” looks at a robot that can relearn how to walk after losing multiple limbs.

CMU engineers have built a robot able to transition from walking on six legs to five so as to use one of its front legs as a gripper arm.

More accurately, if the robot is immobilized by a broken leg, it only takes a few seconds for it to learn how to walk again, using a new gait that minimizes the impact of the broken leg.

In response, the man explains that the animals only have "vestigial legs" that can no longer be used for walking. Scientists believe snakes used to wander the Earth on legs about 150 million years ...

The Shanghai Evolution Shift company has just pulled off one of the most impressive robotic projects we’ve ever seen – making a building walk using 198 robotic legs. We’ve all see… ...

Video Think of it as one giant (biologically accurate) step for robot-kind. Scientists at the University of Arizona yesterday published research on the development of a two-legged robot designed ...

MABEL is a leap in advanced leg design and will help researchers to create running robots with more efficient, animal-like gaits, he says.

A YouTuber took it upon himself to build robot legs for snakes.
