Once inside, a magnetic field guides and unfolds it at the target site, where it releases medicine in a controlled and steady ...

Australian construction robot Charlotte uses sand, crushed brick and recycled glass to 3D print fireproof, floodproof homes ...

Scientists unveil a flexible 2.7 mm bioprinter that lets surgeons reconstruct vocal folds and prevent scarring after throat ...

A robot has been developed that can walk without electronics, powered solely by a cartridge of compressed gas. Designed by researchers at the Bioinspired Robotics Laboratory at the University of ...

When we think about robots, we think about complex electronic devices. We're conditioned to think about robots as sophisticated machines controlled by intricate programming and powered by advanced ...

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 ...

Microrobots, small robotic systems that are less than 1 centimeter (cm) in size, could tackle some real-world tasks that ...

An experimental new non-electronic bot, however, can be 3D-printed all in one piece, and it's powered by nothing but air. The soft-bodied robot was created by postdoctoral scholar Yichen Zhai and ...

Imagine a robot that can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material. That is ...

This a robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material. Imagine a robot ...

Researchers have unveiled a miniature robot elephant with special 3D-printed "tissues" that allow for more complex and natural movements. A video shows the elephant grasp a flower with its trunk and ...
