This is absolutely incredible and truly life-saving innovation! The RoBoa, with its soft-bodied, 'vine-like' design, sounds like a revolutionary breakthrough for navigating disaster zones. Its ability to snake through debris and locate trapped survivors is precisely what's needed in urgent rescue missions. What a phenomenal achievement by the students at ETH Zurich! Are there plans for its real-world deployment soon, @lukas_m_ziegler?

🚨 BREAKING: Filics has secured €13.5 million in fresh funding to scale its autonomous pallet moving robots. Founded in 2021 by engineers from the Technical University of Munich, Filics has developed a unique robot pairing that autonomously lifts and moves pallets using minimal floor space. Each of their units can carry up to 1.2 tons and maneuver with the speed of 1.2 m/s. The system's autonomous mobility allows it to drive completely underneath and through pallets placed on the floor—without requiring turning space—making it a standout solution for high-density warehouses. Future plans include adapting the technology for autonomous truck loading in under five minutes.

Actuators eat up 30-50% of a humanoid robot's BOM cost. Mass adoption? Not at these prices. This is one of the most persistent challenges in robotics, but @IMSystemsNL may have cracked the code with a novel drive. To understand it, we need to dive into the world of drives & transmission, with all their demands and trade-offs. Shoutout to @MarwaEldiwiny and @GoingBallistic5 for the original video.

FWIW, this is probably the most performant motor I’ve made so far. 80% more copper fill volume and half the air gap compared to motors I’ve shipped previously. Do you want this motor? I’ll throw in a production grade motor as replacement when my factory is set up

A robot snake for the rescue! 🛟 Mechanum wheels, reconfigurable shape, camera set. These robots were developed by researchers at The University of Manchester. This machine is called MIRRAX-150, and it performs inspections as well as explorations. To map 3D point clouds, this machine uses low-cost components, 3D printing, and LiDAR technology. 🧭 Soon, this robot will be deployed on the Sellafield nuclear power station. Basically, it's a snake that changes its body! P.S. What use cases would fit these robots? 🐍 ~~~ ♻️ RT to help 1 robot find a new workplace.

Vision-language models can control robots, but what if the prompt is too complex for the robot to follow directly? We developed a way to get robots to “think through” complex instructions, feedback, and interjections. We call it the Hierarchical Interactive Robot (Hi Robot).

Meet Phantom, a humanoid robot built for battlefield missions by San Francisco–based startup Foundation Future Industries. The robot can walk across rough terrain, enter buildings, and scan dangerous areas before soldiers move in. Phantom uses AI to detect people and understand its surroundings, while human operators stay in control of critical decisions.

Researchers at EPFL in Switzerland have developed a bioinspired robot called GOAT that can change its shape to adapt to different environments. It moves by adjusting the length of its cables, allowing it to morph and travel efficiently across various terrains. This shape-shifting ability makes it useful for exploration and rescue missions, and it was introduced in 2025.

Hamster-powered robot? 🐹 A robot that looks like a hamster ball and can fly over obstacles on its own. Revolute Robotics created a machine called the Hybrid Mobility Robot. I had a chance to meet their team in Boston earlier this year. Two special rings allow this robot to roll in any direction and whirl like a helicopter. A lightweight exoskeleton absorbs shock during landing and prevents vibrations from damaging electronics. Typically, the HMR rolls on the ground, but can also fly to overcome obstacles or climb steep inclines. This robot can go places that humans might not be able to reach, including confined spaces, performing security tasks, and even performing search and rescue missions.

This isn’t a coffee-fetching robot — it’s a life-saving robot. Developed at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, this robot dog is designed to help medics in emergencies too dangerous for humans. It can see in the dark, pick up sounds and even be pet. But even its creators admit: it’s intimidating to many humans— and they’re still working on making it feel more approachable. Tony Dokoupil got a firsthand look.

Charlotte is a spider-inspired construction robot developed by Australian startups Crest Robotics and Earth Built Technology. It is designed to revolutionize building by using local raw materials instead of traditional cement. The robot can 3D print an entire 2,150-square-foot house in just 24 hours. With its bio-inspired legs, Charlotte can move autonomously, adjust its height during construction, and operate without the need for scaffolding. Although still in the prototype stage, Charlotte represents a major step toward sustainable housing solutions on Earth and future construction possibilities on the Moon.

A robot that leaps like a squirrel 🐿️ Researchers at the UC Berkeley have created a robot that can jump and land on a branch, just like a squirrel. This robot, called Salto, is inspired by how squirrels leap and balance in trees. Researchers studied how squirrels adjust their movements to stick a perfect landing. They then programmed Salto to mimic these techniques, helping it land safely on narrow surfaces. They programmed it to adjust its posture mid-air, extending or crouching based on its trajectory. The robot also uses a passive gripper for stability, though it doesn't actively grip like a squirrel. By combining biology and engineering, scientists are making robots more agile than ever. P.S. It's cool to see Salto again in action after 2 years :)

All right, who wants a robot worm? 🪱 Researchers at Case Western Reserve University developed a robot inspired by earthworms. Worms move by using wave-like muscle contractions called peristalsis. This version of the worm-inspired robot has a flexible outer mesh that can continuously change shape. Using this mesh, the robot's fixed parts can move smoothly between each other, providing power and control. This project is referred to as a "soft hyper-redundant robot," due to its highly flexible nature and ability to adapt to various environments. This design could prove useful in scenarios where traditional rigid robots struggle, such as navigating tight spaces or uneven terrain. Please let me know what your thoughts are! 👀 🔔 Hit the bell on my profile to never miss a robot story!
