Our February edition asks the important question: in an emergency, would you trust your life to a robot? More after the break!
DARPA has set a new challenge to roboticists: build a machine that can drive a car, clamber into a ruined building, find humans, and extract them without causing further injury. How have the world's best robotics engineers responded?
Plus look at ways to make a smarter, tougher electricity grid, and attempt to break the sound barrier - on land - in a new Aussie rocket car.
Then, we'll show you how to build the ultimate workshop for less than you might think, consider space truckin' on the moon, drive-by-wire a new car, and be alarmed by an 80 km/h baby stroller.
