A research team at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has engineered soft materials with highly ...

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 ...

(Nanowerk News) For decades, scientists have envisioned a future where nimble robots could traverse rugged terrain and squeeze into tight spaces, ideal for search and rescue missions, industrial ...

Researchers have developed a new, plant-inspired extrusion process that enables synthetic material growth, and the creation of a soft robot that builds its own solid body from liquid to navigate ...

A team of researchers has created smart, advanced materials that will be the building blocks for a future generation of soft medical microrobots. These tiny robots have the potential to conduct ...

“This funding will allow my research group to significantly expand its research,” says Pal. The 33‑year‑old leads the Soft Robotics Mechanics Group at the Institute of Applied Mechanics. “We are ...

Superhumans don’t exist in the real world, but someday you might see super robots. Obviously, robots can be made that are stronger, faster, and better than humans, but do you think there is a limit to ...
