Inventor Matt Denton has built a fully operational hexapod robot that you can drive around. Yet another reason to be careful on the roads these days, folks. Michelle Starr is CNET's science editor, ...
Harrison Bounds (MSR ‘25) transformed his passion into motion with a custom-built hexapod project that coupled design ingenuity and advanced robotics. Many robotics students start their journeys by ...
Weighing in at a little over two tons, Mantis is likely the biggest robot hexapod you’ve ever seen. Mantis walks on six ground-sensing hydraulic legs, carrying a human in its thoracic cockpit or being ...
Arachnophobes look away now, because the iC Hexapod spider robot is coming to get you! Okay, so it's not strictly a spider -- it has six legs instead of eight, hence the hexapod name, and it's not ...
The term mad scientist gets thrown around quite a bit, but in the case of one Matt Denton it most certainly applies. His company, Micromagic Systems, has been working steadily over the past four years ...
This hexapod was made almost entirely via 3d printing (translated). The parts that you need to supply include a few fasteners to make connections, twelve servo motors, and a method of driving them. As ...
What’s more awesome than a normal hexapod robot? What about a MEGA hexapod? Max the Megapod, a six-legged 3D-printed walking robot, is an open source, Arduino-based, Bluetooth controlled, Scratch ...
Chinese researchers are working on the development of future hexapod robots, aiming to achieve a qualitative breakthrough in the robot for lunar exploration. The six-legged robot offers enhanced ...
What good is a robot if, when left to its own devices, it breaks down at the first sign of trouble? What if that robot has been sent off to some inhospitable place where rescue is impossible, much ...
Andrew Thompson looks back on what he and his fellow Master of Science in Robotics (MSR) students took away from sharing their work at one of Chicago's iconic museums. Chicago's Museum of Science and ...
