Harvard researchers have developed a 3D-printing method that could make it easier to build soft robots designed to bend, ...

The Genesis Project represents a significant leap forward in the convergence of generative AI and physics simulation, reshaping the way robots are trained and developed. By integrating innovative ...

A new artificial intelligence control system enables soft robotic arms to learn a wide repertoire of motions and tasks once, ...

Today's robots may not be the hospitable humanoids or shape-shifting Autobots of past imagination, but engineers are well on their way to producing machines that can walk, swim, crawl and climb as ...

Soft robots made out of flexible, biocompatible materials are in high demand in industries from health care to manufacturing, but precisely designing and controlling such robots for specific purposes ...

Researchers at the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT) have developed a biomimetic soft robot inspired by earthworms, utilizing a peristaltic movement for locomotion. The robot's design incorporates ...

Inspired by invertebrate organisms like jellyfish and earthworm, the research of soft robotics as alternatives to traditional rigid robots has made tremendous progress in recent years. Scientists are ...

Researchers at Cornell University have been working on batteries that can 'flow' through the internal structures of robots, kind of like how blood in humans' veins powers our bodies. The team has been ...

Empa researcher Frank Clemens and his team develop soft and intelligent sensors materials based on ceramic particles. Most people think of coffee cups, bathroom tiles or flower pots when they hear the ...

Humanoid robots are moving out of labs and into living rooms, just as aging populations and caregiver shortages are straining home health systems. The next wave is not the rigid metal machines of ...

Underwater octopuses change their body color and texture in the blink of an eye to blend perfectly into their surroundings when evading predators or capturing prey. They transform their bodies to ...
