Engineers at MIT have devised an ingenious new way to produce artificial muscles for soft robots that can flex in more than ...

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

Engineers developed a method to grow artificial muscle tissue that twitches and flexes in multiple, coordinated directions. These tissues could be useful for building 'biohybrid' robots powered by ...

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

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

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

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

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, ...

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

Artificial muscles can replace servomotors, for example, or be used in medicine. However, production is not easy.

MIT engineers grew an artificial, muscle-powered structure that pulls both concentrically and radially, much like how the iris in the human eye acts to dilate and constrict the pupil. We move ...
