Cubli is a cube-shaped robot that can jump up, balance on a single corner and "walk" itself across a desk, all using off-the-shelf parts. Michelle Starr is CNET's science editor, and she hopes to get ...

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a balancing cube, but as different companies and universities start making them, we’re excited to see how they continue to develop. This one doesn’t really have a ...

Engineer Willem Penning has released a video of the ``Balancing Cube,'' a device that uses the same technology as the attitude control device of artificial satellites and is able to stand still at ...

Meet Cubli! Cubli is a 15 x 15 x 15cm robotic cube that can roll around and balance on its corners using a series of gyroscopes. The project has been going strong since February 2011 at the Institute ...

Cubli is a cube that can balance on a corner or edge or walk around by flipping over its edge or can be ordered to have a smooth fall. The cube, six inches in length, was developed by researchers at ...

This robot may not look like much—it is, after all, just a cube—but despite its simple geometry, it’s capable of balancing, jumping, and even walking. Built by Mohanarajah Gajamohan at the Swiss ...

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 ...

The Cubli was developed at the ETH Zurich’s Institute for Dynamic Systems and Control, chiefly by Mohanarajah Gajamohan and Raffaello D’Andrea. The cube features three “reaction wheels” mounted on the ...
