Biohybrid robots that run on real muscle are shifting from science fiction toward workable machines. In labs around the world ...

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 ...

Could a robot smaller than a grain of sand really hoist a load heavier than a bowling ball? In South Korea, engineers have ...

Striving to stand out in the competitive humanoid robotics market, Polish-frim Clone Robotics has unveiled its first full-scale humanoid robot, Clone Alpha. The humanoid integrates synthetic organs ...

Biological muscles act as flexible actuators, generating force naturally and with an impressive range of motion.

The boundary between living tissue and machine is blurring in MIT laboratories. Engineers there have developed a bio-inspired ...

Swedish researchers have developed a breakthrough 3D printing method to create soft actuators. These dielectric elastic actuators (DEA) are made from silicone-based materials, combining conductive ...

Scientists have achieved a breakthrough in robotics by designing the first robotic leg equipped with “artificial muscles,” allowing the machine to move more like a human than previously possible. The ...

Most robots rely on rigid, bulky parts that limit their adaptability, strength, and safety in real-world environments. Researchers developed soft, battery-powered artificial muscles inspired by human ...

Inventors and researchers have been developing robots for almost 70 years. To date, all the machines they have built – whether for factories or elsewhere – have had one thing in common: they are ...

The Global Artificial Muscle Market is primed for growth due to rising demand for advanced prosthetics and soft robotics.
