Almost exactly six years ago, we reported on the first iteration of the self-assembling cube robots called M-Blocks. Since then, they've become exponentially more radical. Here in October of 2019, the ...

Out of all the cool-looking forms that robots can take – humanoid, dogs, fish, crocodiles, snakes, birds, or disembodied arms – a cube seems like a pretty boring choice. But MIT’s new take on the ...

The M-Blocks, created by John Romanishin at MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, are self-assembling robots that move themselves around like magnetic Mexican jumping beans.

Back in October, we heard about MIT's M-Blocks – they're metal cubes that use internal flywheels to hurl themselves around, sticking together magnetically to form simple structures. Now, scientists ...

Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology unveiled small, cube-shaped robots that can flip, jump, stack and assemble themselves into larger shapes with no exterior moving parts. The ...

MIT has announced the development of self-assembling robotic cubes. The cubes can climb over and around each other, jump in the air, and roll across the ground. The robots are now able to communicate ...

Researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) have created autonomous robot cubes that can jump, spin, and assemble Minecraft-like structures on their own. One ...
