Rather than pushing a futuristic, machine-forward aesthetic, XPENG leans into recognisable visual cues such as body shape, ...

Robotics makers have faced the persistent challenge of making machines that function in the same way that humans do — earlier this month, Boston Dynamics revealed a robot that could backflip. But even ...

Clone Robotics has released a new video of its first musculoskeletal android, Protoclone. Touted as the most anatomically accurate robot ever created, Protoclone is built on a natural human skeletal ...

MIT has recently unveiled a novel design concept focusing on the development of flexible skeletons tailored for soft, muscle-powered robots. Engineers have long been intrigued by the potential of ...

(Nanowerk News) Our muscles are nature’s perfect actuators — devices that turn energy into motion. For their size, muscle fibers are more powerful and precise than most synthetic actuators. They can ...

Scientists have been working for years to create robots powered by living muscle tissue. These biohybrid robots combine ...

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 ...

Most humanoid robots pick things up with their hands – but that's not how we humans do it, particularly when we're carrying something bulky. We use our chests, hips and arms as well – and that's the ...

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 ...

One day, robots might navigate through your blood vessels to break up clots, deliver targeted chemotherapy or repair ruptured blood vessels more efficiently and effectively than existing tools, ...

Engineers are another step closer to developing soft robotics and wearable systems that mimic the ability of human and plant skin to detect and self-heal injuries. (Nanowerk News) A University of ...
