Harvard engineers have developed a new 3D printing technique that allows soft robots to ...

Researchers have developed an AI control system that enables soft robotic arms to learn a wide repertoire of motions and tasks once, then adjust to new scenarios on the fly without needing retraining ...

Despite their remarkable flexibility, today’s soft artificial muscles struggle to deliver meaningful force. This ...

A newly developed AI control system using neuron-inspired learning enables soft robotic arms to learn a broad set of motions ...

Humanoid robots look impressive and have enormous potential to change our daily lives, but they still have a reputation for ...

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 ...

Our notion of robotics has recently expanded with the increased use of edible and biodegradable materials. As these materials are environmentally benign and ...

Researchers have developed a new soft robot design that engages in three simultaneous behaviors: rolling forward, spinning like a record, and following a path that orbits around a central point. The ...

HOUSTON – (March 18, 2024) – Soft robots use pliant materials such as elastomers to interact safely with the human body and other challenging, delicate objects and environments. A team of Rice ...

While there are many potential uses for soft-bodied robots, the things are still typically only built in small experimental batches. Scottish scientists are out to change that, with a ...
