Soft robotics has emerged as a transformative branch of robotics, distinguished by its reliance on highly compliant materials ...

A former surgeon's biology-inspired startup is creating soft robotic cells that could transform how intelligent machines are ...

Soft robots have a “cardiovascular” problem. While their bodies can deform and bend, their hearts, the pumps that keep them ...

Shape morphing technologies are significant in soft robotic applications. To this end, we introduce a new shape morphing approach using pneumatic torsion strips, inspired by the shape of a Möbius ...

What if the smooth surface of a pond could be a high‑precision robotics workshop? Engineers at the University of Virginia ...

Robotics company Wisson Robotics has raised its Series A, A+, and A2 funding rounds. The funding will be directed toward the commercialization of Wisson's proprietary Pliabot technology, enhancing its ...

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 ...

Impulsive actuation is unlocking new possibilities for soft robots: launching or catching ballistic objects, jumping over high obstacles, pumping long-awaited artificial hearts, and so on. In this ...

From cells that migrate to tissues that heal, nature abounds with systems capable of sensing and adapting to their surroundings. Replicating this level of adaptability in synthetic systems has ...

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 ...

Researchers introduces the first toroidal, light-driven micro-robot that can move autonomously in viscous liquids, such as mucus. This innovation marks a major step forward in developing micro-robots ...

Scientists in Italy have developed a flexible robotic arm modelled on the octopus, combining soft materials with ...
