Created by researchers at the University of Oslo, DyRET (Dynamic Robot for Embodied Testing) is a quadruped robot which has learned how to walk on its own. The results may look clumsy, but there's ...

A major hurdle to deploying legged robots, whether with two, four, or even more legs, is figuring out how the robot will respond to changing conditions. Humans can adapt as they walk over rocks ...

A new robot has overcome a fundamental challenge of locomotion by teaching itself how to walk. Researchers from Google developed algorithms that helped the four-legged bot to learn how to walk ...

Researchers at Google Brain and the University of California, Berkeley have developed an AI system that taught a quadrupedal robot how to walk from scratch.

Science Robot learns to walk while damaged Researchers look to animals for inspiration in developing a groundbreaking algorithm to help broken robots adapt quickly and keep moving.

How robots could run and walk like animals and humans Robots are helping perform surgeries in the operating room, catching the journalism bug and even working on late-night TV.

'Paleo-robots' provide an experimental approach for understanding how fish started to walk on land by University of Cambridge Editors' notes ...

Walking is hard, and what's hard for humans is equally confounding for robots. But with the help of machine learning, a robot learned to walk in just a few hours—a good 12 months faster than the ...

New ‘Paleo-Robots’ Could Shed Light on Animal Evolution, Revealing How Some Fish Evolved to ‘Walk’ on Land A team of roboticists, paleontologists and biologists are building robots to ...

To get the robot to move to the beat, Hong and his team scripted the entire dance. It was programmed frame by frame on a computer, not constructed by recording the captured motion of a human dancer.

But this robot can’t see, and MIT’s researchers didn’t train it to walk or run. Rather, it taught itself, and in just three hours. The key: removing humans from most of the process.
