Self-driving cars are just around the corner. Many people worry about the added expense of autonomous technology and the effect it'll have on car prices, but in fact, self-driving vehicles are likely to save owners a good bit of money.

How much? By …

There are many repetitive, labour intensive jobs when it comes to packing fruit and vegetables, but robots could soon take some of the load. Andrew Taylor, an engineer from Auto Control Systems, has been designing these robots.

He described the robo…

Scientists have created a 'mother' robot that can build babies out of mechanised blocks, and then create new ones that evolve from the previous generation. The findings show that robots could be able to evolve on their own, in the same way in which …

The Pentagon has awarded a $6.6 million contract to Boeing to design a mini space shuttle that can launch military satellites and space weapons. 

The craft, called the XS-1 program (eXperimental Spaceplane 1) is meant to defend against the growing t…

Sometimes, China seems like an entirely different world to me; however, it is mostly the language (and writing) that sets it apart. Chinese 3D printing market players seem similar to those from any other country: full of creativity and desire to rai…

When it comes to some of the more interesting design experiments we’ve seen in recent memory, the design and architecture blog Dezeen - along with car manufacturer MINI - have been actively collaborating with a number of artists and designers under …

On demand 3D printing is taking off in some of the world’s most advanced military forces, including the US and the UK military. Now, the Chinese Army is introducing the technology, as well, by looking at the more practical side of its implementation…

Automatische Fertigung.

Forscher der Universität Cambridge haben Evolution durch „natürliche Selektion“ in Robotern beobachtet: Ein Fertigungsroboter war in der Lage, aus den motorischen Eigenschaften der von ihm montierten „Kinder“ zu lernen und ne…

Heads up, carbon-based life forms: Researchers in Europe have developed a robot that can make other robots.

What's more, the robotic system assembles smaller systems that improve with each generation.

It may seem like a misguided thing for us to do,…

A few years ago, the office printer was in danger of becoming a dusty relic from a bygone era; like a floppy disk trying to stay relevant in an all-digital world. Then “3D” happened. All of a sudden, printers are one of the hottest and fastest-growi…
