Roboticists have been motivated by a long-standing goal to make robots safer. The new actuator could be used to develop inexpensive, soft, flexible robots which are safer and more practical for ...
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory researchers have developed 3D-printed, light-activated artificial muscles using liquid crystal elastomers embedded with gold nanorods. The actuators bend, crawl, ...
“Could a robot smaller than a grain of sand really hoist a load heavier than a bowling ball? In South Korea, engineers have built one that does exactly that by abandoning motors and gears in favour of ...

Slime-like artificial muscle reshapes on command, heals after damage and turns one robot into many
Breaking away from conventional robots that perform only predefined functions once fabricated, researchers have developed a ...
Engineers at MIT have devised an ingenious new way to produce artificial muscles for soft robots that can flex in more than one direction, similar to the complex muscles in the human body. The team ...
ZURICH, Switzerland (CBS Newspath/Reuters/WKRC) - A revolutionary new suit has allowed lucky users to experience a whole new level of interaction with the virtual world. The Meta Suit is a full-body ...
