And a group of robotics researchers at the University of Maryland got that compliment last month, when their robotic bird, dubbed "Robo Raven" was attacked by a hawk.

By now, you’ve probably heard at least a little about the robotic flies that Harvard’s Robert Wood is making for the Pentagon. In this month’s IEEE Spectrum, Wood details how he’s making ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois have built a robot bird that can fly gracefully across a room and land gently on your hand. Screenshot by CNET ...

Robotic birds are notoriously difficult to make, because the complex motion required brings mechanical weight penalties that are difficult to balance with the modest thrust of the flapping wings ...

With feet and legs like a peregrine falcon, engineers have created a robot that can perch and carry objects like a bird.

A robotic bird created by Army and University of Maryland researchers is tricking real flocks -- and hawks -- midair, making it a potential unsuspecting future war agent. Robo-Raven glides, soars ...

A shape-shifting, robotic bird that can sweep through the skies without a peep has all the right stuff for ground surveillance and even spying on its real-life inspiration—the common swift.

The robot is being used to test out new control principles. One of the most interesting aspects of the PigeonBot is that the scientists fitted the flying robot with real bird feathers.

ADELPHI, Md. (May 31, 2013) -- A robotic bird created by Army and University of Maryland researchers is tricking real flocks -- and hawks -- midair, making it a potential unsuspecting future war ...
