Empa researchers are working on producing artificial muscles that can keep up with the real thing. They have now developed a ...
Humanoid robots have glimmered on the tech horizon for half a century, but each new prototype still triggers Masahiro Mori’s “uncanny valley.” When a machine looks almost, but not quite, human, our ...
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed a soft artificial muscle that mimics the structure and behavior of the human iris. Powered by light and made from real ...
Researchers at the University of Bristol have created a network of simple mechanical motors ...
Scientists have developed a network of mechanical motors that mimic the molecular machinery underpinning human muscle ...
Patrick Danner from Empa's Laboratory for Functional Polymers is working on actuators made of soft materials. Artificial muscles don't just get robots moving: One day, they could support people at ...
Future robots could soon have a lot more muscle power. Northwestern University engineers have developed a soft artificial muscle, paving the way for untethered animal- and human-scale robots. The new ...
On the Moon, taking a simple step could quietly damage your body. With weaker gravity, your muscles do less work, your bones carry less weight and, over time, both start to fade. That problem does not ...
