Prof. Qinmin Pan and his team members developed the first bio-inspired microrobot that can walk and jump on water without dipping. This exciting concept was inspired from the water striders, and they float on the water surface by maintaining equal body weight along with their elongated minute-haired legs. This microrobot has three supporting and two […]

Robotic underwater vehicle mimics jellyfish motion
March 21st, 2012 yog 
The researchers of Virginia Tech developed a robotic underwater vehicle called as Robojelly. As this jellyfish-inspired robot is powered by hydrogen and oxygen in the water, it never runs out of energy. It is currently in the initial stage, and expected to be used in underwater rescue and surveillance operations. Yonas Tadesse, an author of […]

Unmanned Wave Gliders are swimming across Pacific Ocean
December 6th, 2011 yog The Wave Gliders are the remotely-piloted robotic boats designed by the Liquid Robotics. On 17th November 2011, four unmanned Wave Gliders have begun their 300-day trip across the Pacific Ocean from San Francisco. At first, four of them will navigate to Hawaii. There from one pair goes to Australia, and the other two travels to […]
