South African Quentin Harley's new 3D printer is an unusual, but potentially groundbreaking, design.

The 2013 IEEE International Conference of Robotics and Automation was held early in May. Here's a video montage of several robots shown off at the event.

Johannes from the Austrian art weirdos Monochrom sez, "As we are currently celebrating 20 years of monochrom, we were confronted with the problem of how to (re)present our history.

One could reasonably assume Japan’s impressive array of supertech humanoid robots would swarm the inspired-by-Fukushima DARPA Robotics Challenge (DRC), but Tokyo University spin-off SCHAFT Robotics is it.

In the past couple years there has been quite a bit of activity into r&d of tiny insect/drone/ornithopter type vehicles. Two intriguing designs I've b...

Arduino is a great hardware platform for anyone interested in building almost any sort of homebrew electronics project. But the huge selection of Arduino boards can make it hard for a beginner to get started.

Edward Crocodile-Hands was thought to be an integral part of the Open Mobile project... however, Edward was a misfit

This post will detail my plans and progress for an autonomous car. I’ll be using what I learned from building the balancing robot and courses thoughUdacity and MITx. The goal is to take a small 1/10 remote controlled car and have it navigate a course on its own. To navigate the course, I plan to use an Android phone, GPS, and an accelerometer/gyroscope. I will record a video stream through the phone and then process it on my laptop using Python and the computer vision library OpenCV.

The brain of a dragonfly has to do some serious calculations -- and fast -- if it hopes to nab a mosquito or midge in midair.

Also, by connecting a projector instead of a recording device, images can be projected onto a fast-moving object. This could also be used in AR applications, showing interactive content on moving objects.

Le streaming vidéo embarqué a longtemps coûté cher et nécessité du matériel haut de gamme. Ce temps est révolu : le Raspberry Pi est désormais capable d'envoyer le flux vidéo

There's still time to get in on the launch of the Smart Citizen sensor and data platform; their fully-funded Kickstarter ends on Sunday. The Smart Citizen Kit looks to be one of the more polished e...

Thanks to Lance who created a project on Instructables,  you’ll be able to create remote-controlled eyes using Arduino Uno, two servos, some plexiglass and a couple of doll’s eyes
