The next generation of soft robots might be folding and sliding as effortlessly as living tissue, say a team of engineers who have created “magnetic muscles” with 3D printing. Filling elastic, ...

The new capsule robots developed for medical applications can reportedly be swallowed by patients and steered using magnetic fields. The team explained that such robots could reduce the current ...

Until now, when scientists created magnetic robots, their magnetization profiles were generally fixed, enabling only a specific type of shape programming capability using applied external magnetic ...

Magnetically steerable guidewires enable remote, minimally invasive navigation and precise tip control in complex vasculature. Scientists at Nankai University developed a dual-coil magnetic guidewire ...

A crawler robot made with the miura-ori origami pattern. The dark sections are affixed with thin "magnetic muscles" made by co-extruding rubber polymer and ferromagnetic particles, which move the ...

Chemists made magnetically powered robots able to move faster with a clever design trick. They created a flexible film that has little pockets of magnetic powder in it, instead of mixing the powder ...

Autonomous Mobile Robot technology HAKOBU is designed to save production time and can move in any direction, all without having to charge a battery The new HAKOBU magnetic robot transport system can ...

Researchers at Penn and the University of Michigan have developed the world’s smallest, fully autonomous robots. The health ...

TCL showed off the Tbot desktop robot at MWC 2026. It pairs with kids smartwatches to handle routines, learning, and bedtime ...
