If this light-activated stuff works, it could make building robots easier - or make lazing about under the Sun quite a ...

Now, MIT engineers have taken a major step toward developing robots that replace rigid gears with something much softer – ...

MIT engineers have made a breakthrough in this area—they’ve developed a method to grow muscle tissue that contracts in ...

Researchers at Empa are developing artificial muscles that could one day move like real ones. Using advanced 3D printing, ...

The human body moves through a coordinated effort of skeletal muscles, working in concert to generate force. While some ...

They have now developed a method of producing the soft and elastic, yet powerful structures using 3D printing. One day ... or ...

Scientists at MIT have created a new kind of artificial muscle that can flex and move in multiple directions, much like real ...

Researchers have developed a new method to grow artificial muscle tissues that can twitch and flex in multiple directions.

The flexibility of biohybrid robots could allow them to squeeze and twist through areas that are too small or complex.

First, they 3D-printed a small ... However, it's been a challenge, for her group and others, to design artificial muscle tissue that moves in multiple, predictable directions.

Researchers have developed a 3D printing method for soft actuators, paving the way for artificial muscles in robotics, ...
