In what may be the birth of cheap, easy-to-make robots, researchers have created complex machines that transform themselves from little more than a sheet of paper and plastic into walking ...

Scientists and engineers at Harvard and MIT have come up with a wicked cool self-assembling paper robot that puts itself together (sort of) and walks away. With about $100 of paper and plastic ...

Harvard University scientists have built the world's first working "Transformer" robot, inspired by the ancient Japanese paper-folding art of origami.

Most of his mesmerizing sculptures are made with just cardboard, glue, and a knife. Warren shows us how to build our very own robot helmet, using the techniques he's perfected throughout his career.

Scientists have developed robots that can change their shape on-demand to accomplish different tasks. In other words, they created autonomous transformers.

Hi all! Do you like the Transformers movies? Well, Roger and Sammy most certainly do! And they have just found out that the local movie theatre plans to show the whole franchise this weekend! How ...

Watch these ‘transformer’ robots fold themselves into boats, wheels and other useful shapes A magnetic cube moves to a sheet of origami that folds around it and transforms into a walking bot.

A newly designed "transformer" robot with the ability to change shape could one day be used to build habitats in space.

The Transformer-Bot consists of cubes connected by rotating hinges. Using actuators, it can take on different shapes and move around.
