As bee populations dwindle globally due to a myriad of factors such as climate change, pesticide use, and habitat loss, the need for innovative solutions to sustain vital pollination processes becomes ...

Pollination is one of the most important processes in agriculture. Many fruits, nuts, and vegetables rely on bees and other insects to transfer pollen between flowers so plants can produce ...

Researchers at the Freie Universität Berlin have developed a robot that mimicks the dances of European honey bees. In this lab demonstration, a robotic arm controls the bee. Read more in "Attack of ...

MIT researchers have developed more advanced bug-like robots that could one day pollinate indoor plants. The weight of a paperclip, these robotic bees can remain airborne for nearly 17 minutes, ...

A bee-like robot currently under development at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is part of a new generation of bots inspired by creepy crawlies. The machine, which weighs less than a ...

This Rosh HaShanah, as you dip apples in honey, know that Technion science is helping Israel’s — and the world’s — dwindling bee populations thrive. From AI-monitored hives to robotic honeybees, ...

In the U.S., the dinner plate-sized Dropcopter drone can now be seen releasing dry pollen from what looks like a WW2 aircraft ball turret under its belly. One person can manually pollinate five to ...

This video explores the next generation of robots poised to enter everyday life. From humanoid assistants and powered exoskeletons to robotic bees and pollution-hunting machines, these systems promise ...
