There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Image shows a robot – dubbed “MuddyBot” – that used the locomotion principles of the mudskipper to move through a trackway filled with granular materials. The robot used two limbs and a powerful tail to move through the trackway, which could be raised to provide a sloping surface. (Credit: Rob Felt, Georgia Tech)
