Seeing robots made with soft, flexible parts in action appears to lower people's anxiety about working with them or even being replaced by them. A study found that watching videos of a soft robot ...

Engineers have developed a new soft, flexible device that makes robots move by expanding and contracting -- just like a human muscle. To demonstrate their new device, called an actuator, the ...

For the first time, engineers have digitally recreated the complex muscular architecture of the octopus arm and its unique movements, which opens the door to developing soft robotics with ...

Soft robotics and actuator systems represent a transformative approach to machine design by replacing rigid components with compliant, deformable materials. This paradigm shift draws inspiration from ...

The field of robotics has transformed drastically in this century, with a special focus on soft robotics. In this context, ...

Elon Musk, whose electric automaker Tesla is building its own humanoid called Optimus, has said that the robots will be “the ...

A bee-like robot currently under development at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is part of a new generation of bots inspired by creepy crawlies.

If a soft-bodied robot uses rigid actuators to move its body, then it isn't really soft now, is it? An experimental new caterpillar-inspired bot gets around that conundrum by using soft, collapsible ...

Blattner has signed a three-year agreement to deploy dozens of Built Robotics’ AI-powered robots on solar projects across the ...

Meril launches Mizzo Endo 4000, India’s first next-gen surgical robot with AI, 5G telesurgery, and multi-specialty ...
