LimX Dynamics is doing some fascinating work in the robotics arena. Four months after impressing us with its talented Oli ...

TRON 2 officially launches with a focus on embodied robotics, the modular humanoid robot can be easily customized.

Multifunctional fluidic units generate coordinated motion and sensing in soft robots by combining actuation, switching, and oscillation in one module, reducing reliance on electronic control.

As cities continue to expand and infrastructure projects grow more ambitious, the construction sector is facing a crippling problem: There aren’t enough workers. The U.S. alone will need to attract ...

What if living muscle could power machines with the same force and precision as engineered actuators? Engineers at MIT have made an advance toward that dream reality by fabricating artificial tendons ...

Because TexTrack’s system separates the “movement platform” from the “payload module”, the same unit can serve picking one ...

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 ...

Can cutting open a robot be the best way to win an engineering argument? That slice through synthetic skin, theatrically done ...

The robot is made of segments that can fold into a flat disk and extend into a cylinder. Partial folds bend the robot and allow for motion and steering. Engineers at Princeton and North Carolina State ...

As competition intensifies among surgical robot makers, CMR said its soft tissue platforms are the second most used systems ...
