Increasingly, researchers are designing robots with forms and functions that defy our expectation of what a machine can be or do.

One of the more unexpected robotics applications in recent years comes from the National Science Foundation (NSF)-supported "RoboBees" project, which aims to create autonomous robotic insects capable of sustained, independent flight.

Such robots could one day assist in reconnaissance, aid in remote communication, or even act as artificial ...

Robots are about to enter daily life just as computers did three decades ago.

The increasing presence of assistive robotics technologies in factories, hospitals, cars, farms, homes and beyond is the result of nearly half a century of federal investments in fundamental science and engineering research.

The National Science Foundation (NSF) has been at the forefront of these investments, supporting U.S. ...
