🖉 Motivation Traditional climbing robots rely on magnets (which only work on ferrous surfaces), gecko-like adhesives (complex and difficult to maintain), or vacuum cups (bulky and power-hungry). I ...

The problem of gripping all surfaces has always plagued the field of climbing robotics. But if you don’t care about damaging the wall, why not just let the robot glue its feet to the surface. That’s ...

Instructables user Technochicken built this cool tree-climbing robot: After I got comfortable programming and building with an Arduino, I decided to build a robot. I did not have any particular type ...

A sticky-footed robot that can climb rocky cliff faces while carrying five times its own mass has been developed in Switzerland. It could act as a scout for mountain rescue teams, help construction ...

Using "chimney climbing," the robot dog Kleiyn moves upward between two walls. It does this 50 times faster than the previous record holder. A team of scientists at the Jouhou System Kougaka ...

Researchers have used a variety of technologies to give robots the ability to climb walls, such as magnets, rolling seals and electro-adhesive properties. But when it comes to wall-climbing robots its ...

Roboticists at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich) have taught the four-legged robot dog ANYMal from ANYbotics to climb a standard ladder. This is a problem that has so ...

There are plenty of Arduino-based robots in the world, but actually building one is a bit tough if you're not familiar with Arduino programming. But a company called ArcBotics has created an ...
