This robot can juggle! 🤹🏼‍♀️ A great engineering showcase as a part of a master's thesis at the Brno University of Technology! CableEndy is a cable-driven parallel robot project at the B&R Industrial Automation Brno office. The robot was created most probably to make all professional Kendama players feel...

The robot is used to inspect the walls of ships. 🚢 The Magnet Crawler introduced by the University of Bremen is a lightweight and compact climbing robot for magnetic surfaces. The robot has two magnetic wheels driven by geared motors and an elastic tail to improve stability. In the front part of the robot, there is a miniature wireless camera. The robot is remotely teleoperated & the video signal from the camera is displayed to the operator on a portable screen. Let's wait and perhaps the robot will become more autonomous over time. Big fan of robots that make the world a safer place for humans. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Rope climbing robots! 🪢 One objective, multiple approaches to achieve it. Back in 2017 undergraduates from Mechanical Science and Engineering at the University of Illinois utilized many mechanical strategies and tools to create a full menagerie of rope-climbing robots. Amazing creativity and uniqueness of each solution. Which robot is your favorite? Personally, I would say the one at the end dressed as a monkey! 🦍 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

A cool cable robot from Germany! 🧶 CARGOLin, the newest cable-driven system from the ISW University of Stuttgart was showcased at SPS for the first time. The control stack runs on TwinCAT 3 from Beckhoff Automation, computing kinematics in under 200 microseconds, enabling hybrid control at high speed. Eight 1.6 kW Bosch Rexroth ctrlX winches drive a 600 g platform at up to 15 m/s with 35 g acceleration. Extreme dynamics for a cable robot of this class. 🤯 The frame can also reconfigure itself in real time using eight additional linear axes, letting researchers test new strategies for collision avoidance. Admit it that you have watched it more than once! 🔥 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

I spy with my little eye! 👁️ The BBC came up with a wheeled robot disguised as elephant dung to film wildlife up close. The robot rolled alongside a group of elephants, allowing it to roll quietly alongside the animals without spooking them. It's 2026 and we have bots pretending to be elephant poop to shoot content! 💩 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

This robot is playing Tetris! 🧊 AGILOX dropped something exciting at LogiMAT. One of the most requested robot use cases finally automated: Manual truck loading. What I'm really impressed of is the high precision positioning of pallets directly next to the truck or container wall. It's 2026 and I love that fact that AMR companies are not just moving goods from A to B anymore, but they innovate and look for more value-adding tasks across logistics sites and manufacturing plants! ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Gravity-defying robot! 🦎 VertiGo is a wall-climbing robot created by Disney Research and ETH Zürich that can transition between ground and wall. The robot can move on a wall quickly and with agility. VertiGo has four wheels, two tiltable propellers, and two tiltable propellers. One pair of wheels is steerable, and each propeller has two degrees of freedom for adjusting the direction of thrust. The choice of two propellers rather than one enables a floor-to-wall transition, thrust is applied both towards the wall using the rear propeller and in an upward direction using the front propeller, resulting in a flip onto the wall. P.S. Can you guess the year of development? 👀 ~~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

This robot explores the world like a mouse! 🐁 That's an OG project, guess the year ;) A mouse-inspired bot called WhiskEye travels the world with 24 artificial whiskers and spiking neurons that mimic a nervous system. Recognizing familiar places is essential for engineering applications like robot navigation, where interactions with the real world are key. Combining information from multiple senses helps to make better accuracy and robustness, but challenges like mismatched data and sensor errors complicate this process. Inspired by how animals navigate seamlessly, researchers developed predictive coding, a self-supervised learning method based on the brain's visual cortex model. It combines visual and tactile cues from a robot, outperforming existing methods in recognizing places, even when some sensors fail. What a great project from BristolRoboticsLab and Sheffield Robotics! ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Modular robots that repair themselves by... stealing parts! 👀 A team at Columbia University built robots made of Truss Links, stick-shaped modules with magnetic connectors at each end. Connect a few and you get a structure that can expand, contract, roll, and reshape itself. If a link breaks or comes loose, the robot grabs a spare module nearby and rebuilds itself. No human intervention needed. A tetrahedron-shaped robot grabbed a spare link like a walking stick. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

A versatile robot helping out airports! 🛩️ Meet a two-wheeled robot from Fraunhofer IML! 🦿 This balancing robot with gripping arms successfully completed its initial practical tests at the cargo terminal of Munich Airport a while ago. It transported goods, supported loading and unloading, and assisted with physically demanding logistics tasks. This robot can carry loads of up to 100 kg and reach speeds of around 60 km/h. That’s far beyond what most AMRs can handle, yet it still has arms and a form of mobility that lets it work in spaces designed for people. P.S. What other applications would you use this robot for?! 🦾 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

China is crazy. 🤯 Forget a classical grippers, and welcome to era of humanoid acting as EOATs. Someone thinking about the gripper, actually said: you know what, let's just stick half a humanoid in there and that'll solve the problem. Humanoid torso from LimX Dynamics mounted on a 6-axis industrial robot arm wasn't on my 2026 bingo, but I'll take it. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Robotics doesn't need to be boring! 😴 Just imagine, you're an only child, you have no one to play football with. Then this fella comes in and you can train your dribbling skills as long as you want (or as long as the battery lasts). Anyway, pretty awesome robot for non-industrial use.

Octopus inspired robot! 🐙 Researchers at the National University of Singapore have created a streamlined octopus-inspired swimming robot capable of replicating the animal’s agile movement through water. Unlike previous designs that require eight actuators for each arm, this robot simplifies the mechanics using just two motors and an umbrella-like mechanism to coordinate its eight soft arms. As it swims, the robot’s arms gently open to reduce drag, then quickly close to generate thrust mimicking the jet-propulsion used by real octopuses. In lab tests, it reached speeds up to 314 mm/s. This soft robotic platform not only matches the swimming performance of more complex systems but also offers greater energy efficiency. Pretty cool nature-inspired robot application! 👀 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →
