Mini robot climbs water pipes to examine them
A bunch of researchers from Japan’s University of Electro-Communications have conjured a mini robot which is capable of moving around freely within water and gas pipes as lengthy as they measure 10cm or more in diameter. that robot will move about inside these pipes as faraway as they’re made out of iron, since it relies [...]
Tokyo Robosuit Helps You Lift Stuff
Those of you Iron Man fans out there will certainly welcome that robosuit, which was created by the students at Tokyo’s University of Science. While we’re assured certain you’ve seen at least one or two similar examples, that one is rather contemporary and despite being less bulky than previous models, allows you to lift an [...]
