Robotic materials are composite materials that combine sensing, actuation, computation, and communication in a repeatable or amorphous pattern. [1] Robotic materials can be considered computational metamaterials in that they extend the original definition of a metamaterial [2] as "macroscopic composites having a man-made, three-dimensional, periodic cellular architecture designed to produce an ...
Achieving controlled flight proved exceedingly difficult, requiring the efforts of a diverse group: vision experts, biologists, materials scientists, electrical engineers. [2] During the summer of 2012, the researchers solved key technical challenges allowing their robotic creation, nicknamed RoboBee, to take its first controlled flight.
hitchBOT was a Canadian hitchhiking robot created by professors David Harris Smith of McMaster University and Frauke Zeller of Toronto Metropolitan University in 2013. [1] [2] [3] It gained international attention for successfully hitchhiking across Canada, Germany and the Netherlands, but in 2015 its attempt to hitchhike across the United States ended when it was stripped, dismembered, and ...
