If someone asked you to move like a robot and you responded with the fluid art of ballet, your audience would be baffled, yet ...

A team led by Northwestern University’s Sam Kriegman built an AI system that designed a walking robot from scratch in seconds ...

Harvard engineers have developed a new 3D printing technique that allows soft robots to bend, twist, and change shape in predictable ways when inflated. The approach embeds shape-morphing behavior ...

Researchers who created a soft robot that could navigate simple mazes without human or computer direction have now built on that work, creating a 'brainless' soft robot that can navigate more complex ...

Two engineers have developed the first 3D-printed robot with a mix of solid and soft materials that can jump similarly to a human, the result of research they think will have applications for disaster ...

Humanoid robots are rapidly improving in motion fluidity, making them more human-like and suitable for complex tasks.

Ishikawa, Japan-- Soft robotics is an emerging field in the robotic world with promising adaptability in navigating unstructured environments. Where traditional robots struggle with unpredictable ...

When disaster strikes and buildings collapse, every second counts for emergency responders searching for survivors trapped beneath rubble. Traditional tools often fall short in these dangerous, ...

(A) FEA-based numerical simulation to optimize the actuator’s geometry and actuation parameters. (B) Using FFF technology, the molds are printed in rigid material and the sacrificial cores are in a ...

Engineers propose a new quantitative framework to account for and predict the impact of temperature on the curing speed of platinum-catalyzed silicone elastomers. The findings could maximize ...
