Modular design is rapidly becoming the key to cost-effective automation, especially in sectors where demand variability and product diversification are common.

That could soon change however, thanks to a new modular robotics system. Currently in development at MIT, the system incorporates individual building blocks known as voxels.

Built from cube-shaped blocks, the robots combine rigid rods with soft, adjustable strings that control their shape. The team ...

Modular robots built by Dartmouth researchers are finding their feet outdoors. Engineered to assemble into structures that ...

Artificial intelligence construction startup Reframe Systems has locked down $20M in an early-stage funding round as modular ...

No single robot can perform all tasks, yet bringing a bunch of different robots along on Moon missions would be quite inefficient. The WORMS setup offers an alternative, in the form of components ...

Microbot Medical (Nasdaq:MBOT) announced today that it received a new patent covering a modular robotic surgical system. The ...

Numerous new robotic technologies have debuted over the past two decades, but the new ATRO robot system from Beckhoff may be one of the first modular, DIY (do-it-yourself) robot technologies for the ...

Microbot Medical ( ($MBOT) ) has shared an update. On August 20, 2025, Microbot Medical announced that it received a patent from the USPTO for a ...

Modular Robotics Market to grow from $2B in 2024 to $7B by 2034, driven by Industry 4.0, AI, healthcare adoption, and smart ...

Modular self-reconfigurable robotics encompasses systems in which individual robotic units can autonomously adjust their configuration to adapt to varying tasks and environmental conditions.

By combining robotics, modular hardware, and cloud computing, dLab represents a major step forward in autonomous, data-driven materials science.
