Researchers have invented a new super agile robot that can cleverly change shape thanks to amorphous characteristics akin to the popular Marvel anti-hero Venom.

Researchers have developed a soft robotic skin that enables vine robots that are just a few millimeters wide to navigate ...

Guided by heat and pressure, a vine-like robot slips through arteries and engines, navigates where humans and tools can’t.

A new machine-learning technique can train and control a reconfigurable soft robot that can dynamically change its shape to complete a task. The researchers also built a simulator that can evaluate ...

Inspired by Marvel’s Venom, a new soft robot made of electro-morphing gel bends, stretches, and shapeshifts with ease.

The stiffened artificial muscle can support up to 5 kilograms (11 pounds) — roughly “4,000 times its own weight.” The muscle ...

In a recent study published in Advanced Intelligent Systems, an international team of researchers led by Cornell University examined the potential for creating soft robots that demonstrate greater ...

HOUSTON – (Sept. 28, 2022) – Add analog and air-driven to the list of control system options for soft robots. In a study published online this week, robotics researchers, engineers and materials ...

Seniors in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Colorado Boulder are designing a new soft robot to improve physicians’ ability to examine the deepest part of a patient’s lung.

Researchers have developed electrically-driven soft valves to control hydraulic soft actuators. These valves could be used in assistive and therapeutic devices, bio-inspired soft robots, soft grippers ...
