A tiny robot so small it can barely be seen can still "sense, think, and act" autonomously, according to the engineers who ...

Researchers have created microscopic robots so small they’re barely visible, yet smart enough to sense, decide, and move completely on their own. Powered by light and equipped with tiny computers, the ...

The robot is hard to see without a microscope. It’s small enough to rest on the ridge of a fingerprint and can operate in ...

Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania and University of Michigan have created the world's smallest fully programmable ...

RobotProg is a fun, free educational program that teaches the basic concepts of programming and robotics. You program a virtual robot using a flowchart: draw the flowchart, run it and watch the robot ...

Robots are everywhere, from the assembly line of major factories to the vacuums cleaning the living room carpet. As big tech companies continue to innovate, they are only becoming increasingly woven ...

At a time when we run ourselves ragged to meet society's expectations of productivity, performance and time optimization, is it right that our robot vacuum cleaners and other smart appliances should ...

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- When most of us were in school, we took science classes like biology and chemistry, but computer science may be even more important for today's kids. Yet nearly 90% of ...

In a joint advance from the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Michigan, engineers have designed the smallest fully programmable autonomous robots ever built – ...
