The military establishment's ever increasing reliance on technology and whiz-bang gadgetry impacts us as consumers, investors, taxpayers and ultimately as the defended. Our mission here is to bring ...

A common challenge for most robotic technologies is access: being able to get in and out of tight spaces quickly, easily, and repeatedly. Ocrobotics built a five-segment snake arm as a technology ...

The snake robot has been something of an institution in the Carnegie Mellon robotics labs. Every time I visit the school, the biomimetic robot has seemingly learned a new trick. This week, the school ...

A repair robot that takes inspiration from the bendiness and sensing ability of snakes to access hard-to-reach places in harsh, industrial environments is now being exploited for use in human surgery.

Carnegie Mellon University has developed a snake-like robot that can work underwater, making it a tool that could prove beneficial for inspecting boats and underwater infrastructure and completing ...

Developed a few years ago through the collaborative effort of Eelume, Kongsberg Maritime, and Equinor, the snake-like robot called Eelume likes to live permanently underwater, being suitable for a ...

ANCHOR MICHELLE WRIGHT SHOWS US ITS SLITHERY COUNTERPART. THIS WEEK, WE’VE BEEN TAKING YOU TO THE FUTURE WITH A LOOK INSIDE THE CARNEGIE MELLON ROBOTICS LAB TO SHOW YOU WHAT’S BEING DEVELOPED RIGHT ...

This underwater robot snake looks like fun, but it has an important job to do. The result of a collaboration between the Carnegie Mellon University, the ARM Institute and the Department of Defense, ...

Snake arm to provide aerospace solutions, including on-the-wing engine and airframe production UK company OCRobotics has developed a prototype flexible arm robot which has aerospace applications, such ...

Scientists at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) have spent a number of years developing modular snake-like robots for all kinds of purposes, and the latest adaptation sees its serpent-inspired tech ...

Tesla’s concept for a robot snake charger for self-driving vehicles might still happen, says CEO Elon Musk. In 2015, Tesla released a video of an automated robot charger that looks like a metal snake.

A laser-cutting robotic snake has been deployed on the highly-radioactive core of the redundant Dragon reactor at Winfrith in the UK. Meanwhile, machine learning algorithms to increase capabilities in ...
