Researchers have developed an AI control system that enables soft robotic arms to learn a wide repertoire of motions and tasks once, then adjust to new scenarios on the fly without needing retraining ...

A newly developed AI control system using neuron-inspired learning enables soft robotic arms to learn a broad set of motions ...

The robot utilises ultra-lightweight electrodes to respond rapidly to surrounding electric fields, which trigger stretching, ...

The method, described in Advanced Materials, replaces the slow, multi-step molding and casting process that traditionally defines soft robotics. Researchers have figured out how to 3D-print ...

Humanoid robots look impressive and have enormous potential to change our daily lives, but they still have a reputation for ...

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 ...

How can some fish, like tuna, achieve remarkable speed while others, like eels, excel in maneuverability? A research team ...

And because of their pliability, soft robots can navigate environments that would otherwise block, damage, or destroy rigid robots. Such design features with fleshily-soft materials are also ideal for ...
