    Virginia Tech: autonomous robotic jellyfish
    March 28, 2013

    Virginia Tech College of Engineering researchers have unveiled a life-like, autonomous robotic jellyfish the size and weight of a grown man, 5 foot 7 inches in length and weighing 170 pounds, as part of a U.S. Navy-funded project.

    The prototype robot, nicknamed Cyro, is a larger model of a robotic jellyfish the same team – headed by Shashank Priya of Blacksburg, Va., and professor of mechanical engineering at Virginia Tech – unveiled in 2012. The earlier robot, dubbed RoboJelly, is roughly the size of a man’s hand, and typical of jellyfish found along beaches.

    WCAI: Dr. Jack Costello on Jellyfish
    April 6, 2014

    Jellyfish are poetry in motion. Dr. Jack Costello tells us a little about these amazing creatures. It's tempting to think of jellyfish as motionless blobs, floating passively with the currents. Would you believe jellyfish are actually the most energy efficient swimmers in the ocean?

    To hear our interview with Dr. Costello on Jellyfish and Robotics visit: bit.ly/Q680iF

    Dr. Jack Costello, professor of biology at Providence College and a Whitman visiting investigator at MBL.
