Fish have a sensory system known as the lateral line, which allows them to detect movements and pressure gradients in the water. Scientists have now given a robotic fish its own version of that system ...

Tiny, robotic fish powered by human heart cells suggest that scientists are getting closer to their goal of building replacement hearts from... Watch these robotic fish swim to the beat of human heart ...

Researchers from Harvard have created an artificial fish that can swim on its own. And it’s all thanks to tissue from a human heart. Just on its own that sounds pretty fascinating. However, the ...

Each fish-inspired robot uses two wide-angle cameras to look for the LEDs on its companions. Image courtesy of Self-organizing Systems Research Group Researchers at Harvard University have created a ...

They are one of nature's most spectacular and most mysterious spectacles — moments where hundreds if not thousands of animals, herrings, starlings, beetles, appear to move together seemingly as one ...

The robot AgnathaX is modeled on the lamprey, a jawless, blood-sucking fish that's been largely unchanged by evolution for the past several hundred million years. Jesse Orrall (he/him/his) is a Senior ...

Researchers built a fishlike robot that uses a programmable artificial tendon to tune its own tail stiffness while swimming in a water channel. The results were impressive: The robot could swim over a ...

Scientists have built a school of robotic fish powered by human heart cells. The fish, which swim on their own, show how lab-grown heart tissue can be designed to maintain a rhythmic beat indefinitely ...
