Video Friday: Biorobotics Turns Lobster Tails Into Gripper Video Friday is your weekly selection of awesome robotics videos, collected by your friends at _IEEE Spectrum_ robotics. We also post a weekly calendar of upcoming robotics events for the next few months. Please send us your events for inclusion. ##### ICRA 2026: 1–5 June 2026, VIENNA Enjoy today’s videos! > _EPFL scientists have integrated discarded crustacean shells into robotic devices, leveraging the strength and flexibility of natural materials for robotic applications._ [EPFL ] Finally, a good humanoid robot demo! Although having said that, I never trust videos demos where it works really well once, and then just pretty well every other time. [LimX Dynamics ] Thanks, Jinyan! I understand how these structures work, I really do. But watching something rigid extrude itself from a flexible reel will always seem a little magical. [AAAS ] Thanks, Kyujin! I’m not sure what “industrial grade” actually means, but I want robots to be “automotive grade,” where they’ll easily operate for six months or a year without any maintenance at all. [Pudu Robotics ] Thanks, Mandy! When you start to suspect that your robotic EV charging solution costs more than your car. [Flexiv ] Yeah uh if the application for this humanoid is actually making robot parts with a hammer and anvil, then I’d be impressed. [EngineAI ] > _Researchers at Columbia Engineering have designed a robot that can learn a human-like sense of neatness. The researchers taught the system by showing it millions of examples, not teaching it specific instructions. The result is a model that can look at a cluttered tabletop and rearrange scattered objects in an orderly fashion._ [Paper ] Why haven’t we seen this sort of thing in humanoid robotics videos yet? [HUCEBOT ] While I definitely appreciate in-the-field testing, it’s also worth asking to what extent your robot is actually being challenged by the in-the-field field that you’ve chosen. [DEEP Robotics ] > _Introducing HMND 01 Alpha Bipedal — autonomous, adaptive, designed for real-world impact. Built in 5 months, walking stably after 48 hours of training._ [Humanoid ] Unitree says that “this is to validate the overall reliability of the robot” but I really have to wonder how useful this kind of reliability validation actually is. [Unitree ] This University of Pennsylvania GRASP on Robotics Seminar is by Jie Tan from Google DeepMind, on “Gemini Robotics: Bringing AI into the Physical World.” > _Recent advancements in large multimodal models have led to the emergence of remarkable generalist capabilities in digital domains, yet their translation to physical agents such as robots remains a significant challenge. In this talk, I will present Gemini Robotics, an advanced Vision-Language-Action (VLA) generalist model capable of directly controlling robots. Furthermore, I will discuss the challenges, learnings and future research directions on robot foundation models._ [University of Pennsylvania GRASP Laboratory ]

We had the pleasure of filming an explanatory video of the protocol to make it easier to follow and reproduce 🎥

A special thanks to the videomaker Vincenzo Bafaro and JoVE journal for this great opportunity✨

Part 1: Playing in lab today with a frog-inspired robot I built back in 2010 with @cjclemente.bsky.social It's old kit, but I want to use it to play and develop ideas for a new project I have in mind. Be back in a few weeks for an update. #biomechanics #biorobotics #neuromechanics #research

A cyborg cockroach factory: Automated assembly speeds up the creation of hybrid robots A team of mechanical engineers at Nanyang Technological University, in Singapore, has developed a way to automate the process of merging live cockroaches and electronics to create cyborg cockroaches, ...

🐞Scientists developed an automated system to mass-produce cyborg cockroaches, combining living insects with electronics for tasks like search-and-rescue. Their automated process makes creating these bio-robots faster and scalable—but is the future of robotics in bio-robots?🤔 #BioRobotics #Innovation
