This is a site for all things about amateur Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs): How-to's, videos, discussion and more.

To help scientists collect the more detailed data they need without risking scientists’ safety, researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology, working with Pennsylvania State University, have created specially designed robots called SnoMotes to tra

The main goal of this project is to develop a cheap, reliable and swarm-capable micro-robot, that can be easily reproduced even at home.

Instead of printing on bits of paper this 3D printer makes real, robust, mechanical parts.

I see a strong parallel between the evolution of robot intelligence and the biological intelligence that preceded it.

Although not quite as capable as their military counterparts -- your creations will likely be dealing with sleeping cats rather than armed terrorists -- these bots can deliver some impressive results.

While robots are a long way from matching human emotional complexity, the country is perhaps the closest to a future — once the stuff of science fiction — where humans and intelligent robots routinely live side by side and interact socially.
