The Future Of Robots
Engineers built humanoid
robots that can recognize
objects by color by
processing information from
a camera mounted on the
robot's head. The robots are
programmed to play soccer,
with the intention of

Robotic Bugs
Researchers have developed a
flexible, sensor-laden
artificial antenna to help a
robotic "bug" move and
navigate just like the
common cockroach. The bug
can curry along walls, turn
corners, avoid obstacles,
