Soft robots still tend to rely on hard electronics to function, but a new invention might reduce that need for unyielding chips. UC Riverside researchers have developed pneumatic computer memory that ...

Engineers from the University of California Riverside have revealed a new creation that is designed to control the movements of soft robots. The engineers revealed an air-powered computer memory ...

An "air-powered" memory helped a soft robot to play the piano, using a technology called "pneumatic RAM" that uses atmospheric pressures to communicate the binary codes needed to function. The product ...

Some people love the sinking, coziness of a memory foam mattress as it forms to their body. It’s not hard to see why; the top memory foam beds alleviate pressure points while also maintaining that ...

If you sleep on your side, you can’t get by on any old bed. I recommend that people who sleep on their sides always opt for a softer mattress to ensure they get all the cushion they need. I've spent ...

Memory foam mattresses have an illustrious history. NASA researchers working to design improved protective cushioning for passengers and pilots originally developed memory, or temper, foam in the ...

Mattress toppers can do more than just provide a comfortable layer on a mattress—they can also keep you cool and relieve back pain. Our top pick, the Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Adapt Topper, is crafted with ...

I used to think my dream mattress would be a soft memory foam model that I sink into every night, sleeping peacefully. I was wrong. In fact, I found the hugging sensation infuriating, but what was the ...

If you know your mattress is to blame for your back or joint pain but can’t drag a new one into your bedroom just yet, a memory foam mattress topper may be the compromise you’re looking for. Memory ...

Sleep. It's arguably the best state of being, just ask my cat. But a good night's sleep requires many things—the best pajamas, a good memory foam mattress or soft mattress (depending on your ...

Did you know that good sleep could add years to your life? If you’ve been stuck in a cycle of waking up tired, it turns out your mattress may be to blame. Luckily, adding a memory foam mattress topper ...

Engineers made a pneumatic RAM chip using microfluidic valves instead of electronic transistors. The valves remain sealed against a pressure differential even when disconnected from an air supply line ...
