Work eases the way to create future aerial-aquatic robotic vehicles

Team demonstrates a pump they made into a heart, mimicking both shape and function

Work expands the general applicability of researchers' resistive force theory of terradynamics

Because of its light weight, dexterity and strength, robotic design offers advantages over traditional mechanisms

Researchers demonstrate a novel method to build microscopic robots with complex shapes and functionalities

New robotic lawn mowing technology aims to deliver freshly cut yards with little set-up.

Controlled by magnetic fields, tiny robot climbs inclines, swims, and carries loads twice its weight

The microtubes are just 8 millimeters long and less than a hundredth of an inch wide. 

Data from 20 million cells collected by U of T researchers to develop detailed cell map.

There’s an urgent demand for new antimicrobial compounds that are effective against constantly emerging drug-resistant bacteria. Two robotic chemical-synthesizing machines, named Symphony X and Overture, have joined the search. Their specialty is creating custom nanoscale structures that mimic nature’s proven designs. They’re also fast, able to assemble dozens of compounds at a time.
