Robots have a tremendous potential, but if a way can't be found to manufacture them quickly, cheaply, and in large numbers, that potential may remain exactly that. To that end, MIT's Computer Science ...

You know what’s cooler than printing robot parts on a 3D printer? Printing the whole freaking robot. Scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence ...

Though the sky has always been the limit regarding the innovation and advancement of 3D printing, a group of researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab may have pushed that ...

University of California, Berkeley, has unveiled a new open-source, budget-friendly and customizable humanoid robot called Berkeley Humanoid Lite. The robot has been designed to make robotics research ...

The robot’s compact size ensures it fits easily on any desk without taking up much space, while its 3D-printed design allows ...

3D-printable robot uses air to power its legs for movement. The robot shell is created as one piece for easy assembly with minimal steps. It's cost-effective with no electronics needed, allowing it to ...

Internals of 3D printed “print and fold” robot. [Image source: MIT CSAIL] Robot design traditionally separates the body geometry from the mechanics of the gait, but they both have a profound effect ...

InMoov is an open-source DIY printable robot that can obey voice commands. It's slightly creepy, but at least it's cheap. Crave freelancer Tim Hornyak is the author of "Loving the Machine: The Art and ...

[Dan Royer] is taking some inspiration from Prusa’s business and is trying to build the same sort of enterprise around open source 3D printable robot arms. His 6 axis robot arm is certainly a strong ...

It might soon be relatively trivial to make soft robots — at least, if you have a 3D printer handy. UC San Diego researchers have devised a way to 3D-print insect-like flexible robots cheaply, quickly ...

Applications for 3D printing/additive manufacturing has grown by leaps and bounds over the past decade—particularly for its use to produce production- and assembly-ready parts, not just prototypes.
