Researchers created tough hydrogel artificial tendons, attached them to lab-grown muscle to form a muscle-tendon unit, then linked the tendons to a robotic gripper's fingers. (Nanowerk News) Our ...

Scientists have developed a self-training method that strengthens lab-grown muscle tissues around the clock, and used them to power a living-muscle robot that swims faster than any of its predecessors ...

A new hydrogel tendon design lets engineered muscle transmit far more force to rigid skeletons, resulting in 11 times higher power-to-weight performance. Study: Biohybrid Tendons Enhance the ...

Our muscles are nature’s actuators. The sinewy tissue is what generates the forces that make our bodies move. In recent years, engineers have used real muscle tissue to actuate “biohybrid robots” made ...

Researchers at the Intelligent Biomimetic Design Lab at Peking University have developed a bio-signal framework showing that fish muscles do far more than generate swimming motion. In a series of ...

Fish muscle signals can reveal movement, sense water flow & improve robot swimming, offering a way to design smarter ...

NUS scientists have developed a self-training method that strengthens lab-grown muscle tissues around the clock, and used them to power a living-muscle robot that swims faster than any of its ...

Researchers at Seoul National University have developed an artificial muscle that can change shape ...

Breaking away from conventional robots that perform only predefined functions once fabricated, researchers have developed a ...

Silent Artificial Muscles: A team of researchers has developed artificial muscles that function just like human muscles.
