A hopping, insect-sized robot can jump over gaps or obstacles, traverse rough, slippery, or slanted surfaces, and perform aerial acrobatic maneuvers, while using a fraction of the energy required for ...

That’s because the tape is both robust and flexible; can be stored in a small container when retracted; and can reach far when extended. After a series of trial-and-error experiments, the engineers ...

It's a game a lot of us played as children—and maybe even later in life: unspooling measuring tape to see how far it would ...

It's a game a lot of us played as children—and maybe even later in life: unspooling measuring tape to see how far it would extend before bending. But ...
