In a groundbreaking experiment, researchers from the ArcLab(Adaptive Robotic Controls Lab) at the University of Hong Kong(HKU) have unveiled a quadruped robot that can mimic human walking style and ...

How did human bipedalism evolve towards greater energy efficiency? By analyzing the occasional bipedal walking of baboons, researchers have modeled energy transfers between body segments. Their ...

The acquisition of bipedalism is considered to be a decisive step in human evolution. Nevertheless, there is no consensus on its modalities and age, notably due to the lack of fossil remains. A ...

Hyundai Motor Group plans a closer collaboration with its Boston Dynamics robotics unit, purchased in 2021, which has developed a number of bipedal and quadrupedal robots. The industrial giant ...

The team at DeepMind issued a research paper outlining a potential benchmarking system to quantify the performance of quadrupedal robots.

Technology Robots Watch two tiny, AI-powered robots play soccer Google DeepMind's bipedal bots go head-to-head after years of prep. Andrew Paul Apr 10, 2024 2:00 PM EDT ...

The question of how the bipedal stance evolved from that seen in our quadrupedal ancestors who walked on four legs has long fascinated scientists.

However, this evidence has given rise to a disputed hypothesis: Humans evolved from a quadrupedal ancestor that used all four limbs for movement on the ground, rather than a bipedal ancestor that ...

The company, among other Chinese competitors, is already mass-producing both bipedal and quadrupedal robots for relatively low prices, especially compared to the likes of Boston Dynamics' Spot Mini.

The bipedal humanoids may, in fact, be coming -- but the quadrupeds are already here. Boston Dynamics’ Spot is easily the most instantly recognizable of the bunch, but plenty of startups and ...
