Until now, the goal of cobot research has been to design robots that behave like a mechanical spring – if moved towards a desired position, they will always return to their original position. DLR ...

Inspired by squirrels, scientists built a robot that lands on narrow perches—advancing agile robotics for disasters and space ...

To achieve this feat, researchers aimed to use the simplest technology available: a desktop 3D-printer and an off-the-shelf printing material. This design approach is not only robust, it is also cheap ...
