Tokyo engineers unveil a dog-inspired robot that uses air-powered muscles to study how animals absorb impact while running ...

Springtails, small bugs often found crawling through leaf litter and garden soil, are expert jumpers. Inspired by these hopping hexapods, roboticists have made a walking, jumping robot that pushes the ...

You may not know what a springtail is but man, those little things can jump! Scientists have now copied the creatures' jumping mechanism in a small robot that could one day explore places that people ...

Earlier this year, we heard about some tiny robots that used a bio-inspired mechanism to jump high into the air. The makers of those devices have now tweaked the design, creating bots that jump very ...

Typical jumping behavior of a spherical shell obtained from simulation: it jumps from the inverted configuration back to its original shape. Inspired by a simple children's toy, a jumping popper toy, ...

A robot with bird-like legs that can walk, hop, leap and jump for take-off into flight has been designed in Switzerland in an engineering breakthrough that could enable aircraft to operate in ...

What just happened? Researchers at the University of Manchester have cracked the code on building a super-powered jumping robot that could soar over 120 meters into the air – way higher than the ...
