Researchers in China have developed a school of robot fish that ingest microplastics as they swim around. The team from Sichuan University in southwest China hope to use the robofish to clean up ...
A robot fish, which was designed to literally scare invasive fish species away from certain ecosystems, just passed its first round of tests with flying colors. BEIJING, CHINA - AUGUST 15: A bionic ...
The winner of the inaugural Natural Robotics Contest not only swims through the water like a real fish — it also helps combat pollution in the process. Created by University of Surrey chemistry ...
Could robotic fishes solve our problem with plastic pollution in the oceans? According to a group of Chinese researchers from Sichuan University in southwest China, robot fish that sucks up ...
They are one of nature's most spectacular and most mysterious spectacles — moments where hundreds if not thousands of animals, herrings, starlings, beetles, appear to move together seemingly as one ...
The Research Centre in Robotics and Underwater Technologies (CIRTESU) at the Universitat Jaume I conducted this week, at the PortCastelló facilities, wireless communication tests between a surface ...
If the argument that art imitates life holds true, than MIT’s fish-like soft robot ― a robot powered by fluid flowing through flexible channels ― is art. Researchers from the prestigious university ...
The mosquitofish is wreaking havoc on native Australian marine life. In a new study, scientists tried to frighten it with a look-alike of its natural foe. By Livia Albeck-Ripka The mosquitofish is not ...
Researchers built a fishlike robot that uses a programmable artificial tendon to tune its own tail stiffness while swimming in a water channel. The results were impressive: The robot could swim over a ...
