"We want kids to see that math has a relationship to the natural world. Math is all around us." Robot Swarm opens to the public on Sunday (Dec. 14). Follow Elizabeth Palermo @techEpalermo.

LARAMIE — Students at Laramie High School this year will use drones and robots to help them learn geometry, algebra, trigonometry and calculus. The school got a state grant of nearly $69,000 to ...

When students are trying to do math or equations like y=l+2b, it's easy for them to get frustrated. But to get those answers, UC Davis has now come up with a way to help them, and that's by r-o-b-o-t.

Your robot, the one you paid good money for, has chosen to kill you. Better that, its collision-response algorithms decided, than a high-speed, head-on collision with a smaller, non-robotic compact.

Forty-three high school seniors who took part in an exam-taking competition in Chengdu, China, officially outperformed the math robot they were up against. The robot, developed by China's Chengdu ...

Maybe not, but he’s doing better in math than he was last year. And he likes it. The grant put 28 ThinkPads, 28 Linkbots, which are small modular robots, and a white board into the applied math ...

What this little robot lacks in function (it’s not even a full scientific calculator), it more than makes up in cold intimidation. Set this puppy upside down facing the teacher’s desk, type in ...

3-meter wingspan: While the rest of you were flipping out because Boston Dynamics taught a quadrupedal robot to open doors, MIT was over here quietly designing robots to take over our oceans.

Thanks to the mathematics of robotics, a few smartphones and some cross-disciplinary thinking, patients may soon see even more benefits from this promising class of molecules.
