While some labs are trying to better the lives of people who had lost their limbs with robotic inventions, some roboticists at the University of Tokyo want to add more arms to regular people with a robotic research project dubbed Jizai Arms.
Drones that morph to achieve another form of mobility aren’t new. There are even toys that do that too. However, this latest developed by Caltech, in collaboration with Northeastern University is something else. Called M4, which is short for Multi-Modal Mobility Morphobot – it is a bioinspired robot that flies, […]
So you think a flame-throwing drone and a robotic dog strapped with a submachine gun aren’t crazy enough? Well, how about a robotic dog armed with a flamethrower? I am not even joking. A flame-throwing robotic dog is only real but it is available to order now.
Xos Hub, the “power bank” for EVs is now in its second generation. The second generation Xos Hub ushers in a new era of mobile DC fast charging. As before, the mission is clear: Xos Hub is here to remove the barrier to adopting electric trucks and that is infrastructure.
