This a robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material.

Imagine a robot that can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material.

Many of the robotic systems developed in the past decades are inspired by four-legged (i.e., quadruped) animals, such as dogs, cheetahs and horses. By replicating the agile movements of these animals, ...

The low-cost robots walk, run underwater, and work in tough places like space or disaster zones, powered only by air and flexible design.

The more natural-looking stride was achieved by analyzing thousands of virtual humanoid robots walking simultaneously in a simulated digital environment, Figure explained in a recent blog post.

In a video (top) shared on X on Tuesday, Figure showed its own humanoid 02 robot performing “learned, natural walking.” Figure’s footage demonstrates the scale of the improvement in walking ...

The future of robotics is here, and it's walking, rolling and pivoting its way into our lives. Do you think robots like Tron 1 will make our lives safer or introduce new risks we haven't considered?

Figure 02's human-like gait is the product of the company's simulated reinforcement learning system, and is just the beginning of its plans to make its robots perform physical tasks more naturally.

Figure AI has developed a new humanoid robotic natural walking capability for its humanoid robots, leveraging reinforcement learning (RL) and simulation-based training. This approach enables the ...

A post-mortem revealed he had asthma and bronchitis, and it's likely the freezing water exposure worsened his condition. He ...

Chinese robotics company Dobot has shown off its humanoid robot, dubbed Atom, preparing a sumptuous breakfast. The video, titled "Rise and Shine with Atom, Your New Breakfast Buddy!" shows the robot ...
