The robot is so small that over 3o,ooo of them could fit on the sharp point of a needle. That tiny size means potentially huge capabilities for medical uses and material sciences since it is small ...

According to Tech Xplore, officials from Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings (TEPCO), which manages the plant, used a remote-controlled robot to remove a small piece from a mound of molten fuel ...

As technology - including AI - moves forward at a pace, so do our options for presents. The Miko Mini is described as not just a robot but an “interactive companion and trusted friend that ...

Cornell University researchers have created the smallest walking robot yet. Its mission: to be tiny enough to interact with waves of visible light and still move independently, so that it can ...

The authors also exploited the so-called "Cheerios effect" as a means of self-assembly to create clusters of tiny ethanol-powered robots. It all adds up to a type of capillary action. Basically ...

Infertility could be treated using tiny robots, suggests a new study. Magnetically driven robotic microscrews offer a high-tech solution for fallopian tube blockages, say scientists. Infertility is ...

By applying an external magnetic field, the robot rotates, generating translational motion that enables it to navigate through a glass channel simulating a fallopian tube. Infertility affects an ...
