MIT researchers have developed more advanced bug-like robots that could one day pollinate indoor plants. The weight of a paperclip, these robotic bees can remain airborne for nearly 17 minutes, ...

Researchers at the Freie Universität Berlin have developed a robot that mimicks the dances of European honey bees. In this lab demonstration, a robotic arm controls the bee. Read more in "Attack of ...

A bee-like robot currently under development at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is part of a new generation of bots inspired by creepy crawlies. The machine, which weighs less than a ...

A new discovery of how bees use their flight movements to facilitate remarkably accurate learning and recognition of complex visual patterns could mark a major change in how next-generation AI is ...

Lifting up the hood of a Beewise hive feels more like you’re getting ready to examine the engine of a car than visit with a few thousand pollinators. The unit — dubbed a BeeHome — is an industrial ...

I saw so many peculiar things inside the Musée Futurium in Berlin that I was left almost speechless. Almost. I mean, what do I have to say about a robotic bee, inside a glass display case, that can ...

BERLIN — I saw so many peculiar things inside the Musée Futurium that I was left almost speechless. Again, almost. I mean, what do I have to say about a robotic bee, inside a glass display case, that ...

Bees navigate long distances without satellites, digital maps, or external guidance. By reading patterns in the sky and sensing their own movement, they track their position and return home with ...
