MIT researchers have built a new AI system that allows robots to create detailed 3D maps of complex environments within ...

MIT CSAIL researchers have developed a new way to 3D-print robots which make the devices less prone to damage -- by giving them soft skins. These days, robots are used in many critical areas -- ...

An experimental new non-electronic bot, however, can be 3D-printed all in one piece, and it's powered by nothing but air. The soft-bodied robot was created by postdoctoral scholar Yichen Zhai and ...

3D printers are an excellent tool to have on hand, largely because they can print other tools and parts rapidly without needing to have them machined or custom-ordered. 3D printers have dropped in ...

From Velcro to wind turbines, some of the greatest modern innovations were inspired by nature. Biomimicry—or emulating patterns found in nature to solve complex problems—has helped scientists and ...

Though the sky has always been the limit regarding the innovation and advancement of 3D printing, a group of researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab may have pushed that ...
