2. RoboBee - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RoboBee

   To make this feasible, researchers need to figure out how to get power supply and decision making functions, which are currently supplied to the robot via a tiny tether which is integrated with the main body. The 3-centimeter (1.2 in) wingspan of RoboBee makes it the smallest man-made device modeled on an insect to achieve flight.

3. Bristlebot - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristlebot

   A bristlebot is a simple, rigid-bodied robot where the lower surface is coated in bristles, like a brush or velvet. The mass of bristles are oriented so that there is an overall inclination to them away from vertical. This is broadly consistent across the robot body, so that it gives a preferred "forward" direction.

4. Moravec's paradox - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moravec's_paradox

   Moravec's paradox is the observation in the fields of artificial intelligence and robotics that, contrary to traditional assumptions, reasoning requires very little computation, but sensorimotor and perception skills require enormous computational resources.

5. Open-source robotics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-source_robotics

   Open source robotics means that information about the hardware is easily discerned, so that others can easily rebuild it. In turn, this requires design to use only easily available standard subcomponents and tools, and for the build process to be documented in detail including a bill of materials and detailed ('Ikea style') step-by-step building and testing instructions.

6. Self-replicating machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-replicating_machine

   A "casting robot" would use sculpting tools and templates to make plaster molds. Plaster was selected because the molds are easy to make, can make precise parts with good surface finishes, and the plaster can be easily recycled afterward using an oven to bake the water back out.

7. Robotics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robotics

   Swarm robotics is an approach to the coordination of multiple robots as a system which consist of large numbers of mostly simple physical robots. ″In a robot swarm, the collective behavior of the robots results from local interactions between the robots and between the robots and the environment in which they act.″* [119]
