Robots eating other robots: The benefits of machine metabolism If you define "metabolism" loosely enough, these robots may have one.
They’re not in our homes yet, but it might be just a matter of time as tech companies bet big on humanoid robots.
Described in a new study published in Science Advances, this new process, called "Robot Metabolism," enables machines to absorb and reuse parts from other robots or their surroundings.
Researchers introduce a process that allows machines to 'grow' physically by integrating parts from their surroundings or from other robots, demonstrating a step towards self-sustaining robot ...
How Robots Could “Eat” Each Other to Grow One of the most groundbreaking aspects of this new robot design is its ability to “eat” other robots to survive.
In a move that inches us just a little closer to the singularity, engineers have developed robots that can grow, self-repair, and morph by absorbing parts from other robots. They can also help ...
We’ve all heard of “Bob the Builder,” but one California company has come up with a real-life spinoff: robot the builder – ...
At UC Berkeley, researchers in Sergey Levine's Robotic AI and Learning Lab eyed a table where a tower of 39 Jenga blocks ...
Robots-for-rent is one way some small U.S. factories gain access to automation, reducing turnover and ensuring workers aren’t ...
