Scientists created a soft robot inspired by elephants, named EleBot, using programmable foam that changes stiffness geometrically.

When audiences think of the original Alien, they often think about how the crew of the Nostromo was in over their heads from the beginning, as they were commercial haulers in the wrong place at the ...

A cute robot elephant could be the future of robotics. The scaled-down jumbo has been built to demonstrate a cutting-edge ...

Researchers have unveiled a miniature robot elephant with special 3D-printed "tissues" that allow for more complex and natural movements. A video shows the elephant grasp a flower with its trunk and ...

“We found, perhaps not surprisingly, that more vasculature surface area equates to better thermal performance. This observation is similar to physiology of elephant and jackrabbit ears, which contain ...
