EZ-Robot was founded in 2011 by Roboticist DJ Sures, which was created for users of all skill levels. Its goal is to unite advanced robotic features with easy graphical design interface, video tutorials, reliable robot controller hardware and an easy to use modular platform. This way, users of all levels can visit a single location […]
Today, November 12th, for the first time the bell was rung by a robot at NASDAQ. This is also important as robotics and automation related technologies was for the first time introduced as an ETF, (ticker symbol: ROBO) which will help investors to benefit from the momentum of the robotics and automation sector. According to […]

The new arm attached to Boston Dynamic’s famous Bigdog robot seems to be doing a good job. The blocks weigh more than 35 pounds (16 kg) and the robot can throw them to a distance of 17 feet (5m). The first version of Big dog robot had appeared few years ago, and throughout its advancing […]
A robotic bat wing has been developed by the researchers of Brown University. Thanks to the research, a great deal of information was gathered about the flight of bats which is quite different than of birds and insects. The role of bows, stretchiness of a bat’s skin, muscular and skeleton structure and the moves are […]
A new autonomous car called RobotCar is designed by the Mobile Robotics Group (MRG) of Department of Engineering Science at Oxford University in the UK. What distinguishes this autonomous car from others is its price in comparison to its technology. Currently, the team has 22 researchers and is in collaboration with Nissan by using their […]
Researchers from the University of Lincoln and Newcastle University in the UK designed a new vision technology for self-moving robots by scrutinizing locusts and their visual ability. This is a 4 year research project which began in 2011. The project is funded by the Seventh Framework Program of the European Union. Professor Shigang Yue from […]
What happens when you have gas pressure generated by live yeast, 3D printed valve and electricity produced by a microbial fuel cell? You get a 3d Printed artificial heart, according to a report that just appeared at New Scientist. The research team, from University of West England in Bristol, UK, notes that the system could […]
