We've been following the exploits of Harvard's tiny Robobee for a few years now, from its first controlled flight, then learning to swim and perch, and rising out of the water with style. Until ...

A recently created RoboBee is now outfitted with its most reliable landing gear to date, inspired by one of nature's most graceful landers: the crane fly. The team has given their flying robot a set ...

Several years ago, Harvard University roboticist Robert Wood made headlines when his lab constructed RoboBee, a tiny robot capable of partially untethered flight. Over the years, RoboBee has learned ...

Researchers at Harvard have created a new version of the RoboBee robotic bee that it has been working on for years. The latest version of the RoboBee is able to do things that previous versions were ...

We've seen RoboBees that can fly, stick to walls, and dive into water. Now, get ready for a hybrid RoboBee that can fly, dive into water, swim, propel itself back out of water, and safely land. New ...

The RoboBee is already a little older. It has now been upgraded with a landing gear and a flight control system that enable safe landings. The new RoboBee, a further development of the original ...

Harvard’s impressive RoboBee has developed from an insect-inspired robot to a soon-to-be autonomous flying micro-drone. Robot developers have longed looked at nature for inspiration. When designing ...

The Harvard RoboBee has long shown it can fly, dive, and hover like a real insect. But what good is the miracle of flight without a safe way to land? A storied engineering achievement by the Harvard ...
