A robot bird that can walk, hop, leap and jump for take-off into flight has been designed in an engineering breakthrough that could transform future airflight ...
Technology Robots Watch this bird-like robot make a graceful landing on its perch A perching robot could one day be used to monitor even the most shy, hidden animals. By Andrew Paul ...
Here’s yet another example of robots stealing our jobs. Over in Arkansas, officials have deployed a robotic bird watcher in order to help locate a bird that may or may not exist. (So that’s ...
This bird-like robot has a claw that it could use to perch on branches it has flown to. It could potentially be useful for collecting samples in hard-to-reach places or silently observing animals ...
Drones are playing an integral part in keeping birds away from dangerous power lines by placing robotic bird diverters on the lines. Some 1,500 new bird diverters have been launched to protect ...
Dozens of boxes of robot pets rest atop the shelves, displaying three different options: a retriever-like dog, a cat, and red and blue birds. All three are produced by Ageless Innovations.
Researchers at Lund University have developed an innovative robotic wing that's directly inspired by real bird wings and that could help improve drones ...
The dogs eventually learned the invisible chirping robot birds were not going to peck their eyes out and steal their snacks. Nowadays, the clock sounds off with little to no reaction from the dogs.
The researchers have designed robot legs that run on fewer motors than comparable machines and could, theoretically, scale to large size. Their energy-efficient robotic model, called BirdBot ...
David Lentink, Professor of Biomimetics at the University of Groningen, has developed a robotic bird model with real pigeon feathers which flies like a bird.
