Researchers from Leiden University in the Netherlands successfully 3D printed a microscopic robot that moves around like a single-celled organism, despite not having a brain. According to the ...

The work demonstrates how you can make robots with a wide range of motion using a minimum number of actuators.

ARLINGTON, Va. – U.S. military researchers are approaching industry to find ways of integrating synthetic and biological components to design bio-hybrid robots that outperform traditional robots.

A cheetah’s powerful sprint, a snake’s lithe slither, or a human’s deft grasp: each is made possible by the seamless interplay between soft and rigid tissues. Muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones ...

With rapid advancements in robotics and AI, the line between science fiction and reality continues to blur. At the heart of this innovation lies a breakthrough: drones designed to solve pressing ...

Scientists at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have created organic robots that are powered by 3D-printed muscle cells and controlled with electrical pulses. These “bio-robots” are the ...

Multiple disease sites are common in clinical practice. In the brain, for instance, blocked blood vessels can cause strokes, in which the lack of oxygen rapidly damages brain cells. If multiple ...

This a robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material. Imagine a robot ...
