The task called for challenging design considerations: “In multimodal robot design, as the number of modes [of locomotion] increases, each mode introduces its own design requirements,” he says. WHDH 7 News Northeastern University helping to design revolutionary new robot Northeastern University researchers are helping to develop a revolutionary robot design that could someday help astronauts explore space. The Verge Caltech’s new ‘Morphobot’ is a little transforming robot that can walk, drive, and fly The M4 was designed by Mory Gharib, a professor of aeronautics and bioinspired engineering at Caltech, in partnership with Alireza Ramezani, an assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at Northeastern University. The The Independent Scientists unveil shape-changing ‘morphobot’ that can walk, drive, and fly Researchers, including Alireza Ramezani from Northeastern University in the US, say the morphobot can transform its shape to navigate the environment by flying, rolling, crawling, crouching, balancing, and tumbling. Watch a transforming robot roll, crawl, stand up and fly “This technology could transform future space explorations, particularly Mars explorations,” says Alireza Ramezani at Northeastern University, Massachusetts. A rover that can fly and navigate difficult terrain could help to collect samples from areas that current rovers can’t easily access, he says. ABC News The future of space exploration is a transforming, animal-like robot, scientists say Alireza Ramezani, an assistant professor of electrical computer engineering at Northeastern University and author of the study, told ABC News. Voice of America US Students’ ‘Big Idea’ Could Help NASA Explore Moon A serpentlike robot designed by students from Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts, could revolutionize how NASA astronauts explore the lunar surface. National Geographic ‘Snakes’ on the moon? These helpers could soon join our lunar mission. The snake-inspired idea for a lunar robot, seen in this diagram, came from Northeastern University assistant professor Alireza Ramezani, who researches bio-inspired robot locomotion. ‘PigeonBot’ Brings Robots Closer To Bird-Like Flight “The work is very impressive,” says Alireza Ramezani, an engineering professor at Northeastern University who recently was part of a team that created a bat-inspired robot. NBC News Forget props and fixed wings. New bio-inspired drones mimic birds, bats and bugs. “There will be these machines that are round the clock doing monitoring and providing information,” says Alireza Ramezani, a Northeastern University roboticist who is working on a bat-inspired robot called Bat Bot.
