Engineers propose a new quantitative framework to account for and predict the impact of temperature on the curing speed of platinum-catalyzed silicone elastomers. The findings could maximize ...

A spinning 3D printer nozzle creates soft robots with built-in air channels that bend in programmed directions, turning flat ...

Scientists have created the first soft robots that can walk straight out of the machines that make them. The flexible, four-legged devices were developed using a new 3D printing system, which could ...

(Nanowerk News) For decades, scientists have envisioned a future where nimble robots could traverse rugged terrain and squeeze into tight spaces, ideal for search and rescue missions, industrial ...

Scientists have created the first soft robots that can walk straight out of the machines that make them. The flexible, four-legged devices were developed using a new 3D printing system, which could ...

Seeing robots made with soft, flexible parts in action appears to lower people's anxiety about working with them or even being replaced by them. A study found that watching videos of a soft robot ...

Zhejiang University researchers build a flexible robotic hand that literally “sees around corners,” combining deep learning ...

What just happened? A team of engineers at the University of Edinburgh has unveiled a new chapter in robotics: soft, four-legged robots that can walk off a 3D printer as soon as they're made. This ...
