A new technology may encourage us to think about drones as not just scouts or weapons platforms, but as useful tools. Small bodies that...

Ground robots often struggle with one recurring problem: every terrain demands a different movement strategy. Smooth surfaces favor wheels, rubble demands crawling, and narrow...

Coordinating multiple drones and ground robots during a complex mission is rarely simple. Operators must manage sensor feeds, assign roles, deconflict movement paths and...

Firefighters frequently operate in environments where collapsing structures, intense heat, toxic smoke, and rapidly changing conditions pose significant risks. Entering these areas to extinguish...

Researchers from North Carolina State University created a material that is both hard and stretchy –glassy gels contain more than 50% liquid and are...

China is one of a handful of states engaged in a race to deploy a hypersonic strike platform capable of evading modern missile defense...

Over the last two decades, the nature of security threats has shifted from the emergence of networked insurgency to the growth of cyber threats,...

Large strategic bombers were designed for a very different battlespace than the one air forces face today. Modern conflicts rely on dense sensor networks,...

Underwater operations present a persistent challenge for both humans and machines. Visibility is often limited, communication is constrained, and navigation can quickly become uncertain....

The rapid spread of military drones has created a growing problem for air-defense forces. Many attack drones are inexpensive to produce, yet they are...

This historic mission to inspect and monitor a large piece of space junk was launched by Rocket Lab and Astroscale Japan atop an Electron...

More and more traditional aircraft makers have been developing unmanned or pilot-optional versions of their designs for on-demand air transportation. One of them is...

Artificial intelligence has long excelled at simple games and simulations, but most systems still depend on millions of trial-and-error interactions to learn. That approach,...

Firefighting and disaster response increasingly place human crews in environments that are unstable, toxic, or simply unreachable. Collapsed structures, chemical leaks, tunnel fires, and...

The growing use of inexpensive drones has created a major challenge for air defense systems. Small reconnaissance UAVs and FPV strike drones can be...

A VTOL AUS stands for an Vertical TakeOff and Landing Aerial Unmanned System, and those aerial vehicles are considered to be top-notch technology. That...

Snake-inspired robots have many advantages over conventional wheeled or legged ones, like adapting the shape of their body, entering narrow spaces and moving freely...

A known model of the MRZR all-terrain vehicle gets robotic capabilities. The vehicle that can fit inside an MV-22 Osprey helicopter and fly troops...

The first UAV mapping mission over a major Canadian metropolitan city was concluded. This first of its kind operation, flown over the downtown core...
