In a surprising development in the field of robotics, researchers have discovered that small modifications to a robot’s body mass and ball size can significantly enhance its balancing abilities.

The night before Anna Garverick was to present her independent project for Northwestern Engineering's Master of Science in Robotics (MSR) program, she learned a valuable lesson: Don’t turn your back ...

Although billed as a balancing robot, [Aaed Musa’s] robot doesn’t balance itself. It balances a ball on a platform. You might recognize this as something called a Stewart platform, and they are great ...
