A mobile robot that can fly! 🐝 DoubleBee is a new robot developed at Nanyang Technological University Singapore that can both fly and move on the ground, using two tilting propellers and two wheels. In the air, it flies efficiently like a bicopter, and on the ground, it balances like a two-wheeled robot, saving energy. On the ground, the propellers help control its balance while the wheels handle movement, making control easier. The robot is built with off-the-shelf parts and tested in real-world experiments to prove its efficiency and performance. DoubleBee can navigate tough environments, fly over obstacles, crawl under barriers, and climb rough slopes.

Researchers at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen have developed a snail-like robotic swarm that can connect to form larger structures. These robots use a two-mode adhesive system inspired by land snails, allowing both movement and strong connections. They introduced this system in 2024, and tests show it can travel on rough terrain, climb obstacles, and combine to handle more complex tasks.

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!

This is Ringbot, a Star Wars–inspired monocycle robot developed by Kim Lab at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 2024. It uses a circular wheel and two legs with independent modules to move, balance, and control direction. It can avoid obstacles, recover from falls, stand up on its own, and reach speeds up to 5 km/h.

Researchers at Duke University developed Argus, a spherical robot with 20 legs and 20 eye-like sensors that can see and move in any direction. Using a concept called dynamic symmetry, it stays balanced and agile while traveling across rough terrain and climbing obstacles. The robot can also track objects and keep working even if some of its legs or sensors fail, making it useful for exploring dangerous environments and other planets.

This drone becomes a flying manipulator! 🥏 Researchers at the The University of Tokyo developed this aerial robot. Built with four pairs of ducted fans linked by actuated joints, Dragon can reshape itself mid-flight. This allows it to grasp objects and perform tasks typically reserved for ground-based manipulators. Each segment has dual rotors, and its navigation stack calculates the most efficient shape for each object. Total payload? More than 3 kilograms. P.S. To increase Dragon's battery life, they consider allowing it to walk on the ground.

🇺🇸 THIS FLYING ROBOT TRANSFORMS MID-AIR LIKE IT’S AUDITIONING FOR AUTOBOTS Scientists at Caltech built a shape-shifting robot that can fly like a drone, then switch midair to roll on the ground like it’s no big deal. It’s called ATMO and it pulls off this stunt using just one motor and some seriously smart code. The real flex? It can transform without crashing or flopping like a busted toy, even when airflow gets messy near the ground. Source: Caltech, Interesting Engineering

Robot dog learned dexterity! 🤯 Robots usually struggle to move and handle objects at the same time, a challenge called loco-manipulation. Researchers at the RAI Institute have developed a new system called ReLIC that makes this easier. Instead of giving robots fixed roles for arms and legs, ReLIC lets them switch roles on the fly, for example, using a leg to help lift something while balancing on the others. This approach is more natural, similar to how humans use different body parts together without thinking about it. ReLIC was tested on a four-legged robot, which successfully performed tasks like moving boxes, opening drawers, and placing items into containers.

Limix Dynamics unveiled Tron 2 in late 2025, a flexible robot that can switch between dual-arm, bipedal, and wheeled-leg modes. In wheeled-leg mode, it can carry payloads up to 30 kg, move across tough terrain, and recharge automatically for longer operations. In bipedal mode, Tron 2 uses visual input to climb stairs step by step and adapt to complex environments.

Demonstrating our latest localization system in action. At bootup, the robot has no prior position estimate, but within seconds it autonomously localizes itself using a fusion of three algorithms. Unlike our previous version, this updated system incorporates vision, allowing the robot to adapt to real-world changes (e.g., moved furniture) by recognizing previously seen environments. In this demo, we repeatedly reset navigation and reposition the robot to random locations, showing robust, repeatable localization. The robot then executes a full patrol, following a planned path (visualized in RViz) with real-time path tracking. Because our software is hardware-agnostic, it brings the same reliable performance to any robot it runs on.

Changing a light bulb with a robot! 💡 Researchers at the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials developed a gripper that can handle complex manipulation tasks like bulb and bolt installation. It has three fingers with nine degrees of freedom (9 DoF), allowing precise control. Each finger moves using a special linkage system that enables flexible motion. The gripper can grasp objects of different shapes and adjust their positions accurately. Tests showed that it can lift up to 12 kg and apply a fingertip force of 40 N with high precision. Complex manipulation can be handled by robots! 🦾

NAVIAI-I3, a more robust humanoid robot, was launched by the Zhejiang Humanoid Robotics Innovation Center. Standing 1.8 meters tall, it can run like a human and walk on various terrains. This humanoid robot appears to be primarily designed for specialized industrial tasks, such as security patrols in underground parking lots. They previously launched the lightweight bipedal NVAI-2 and a wheeled humanoid robot. The bipedal robot is used in manufacturing operations, while the wheeled humanoid robot is used for unstructured, flexible tasks such as warehouse sorting, supermarket shelving, and office cleaning. We filmed this demonstration at the World Robot Conference; you can see it in the comments section.
