Despite how advanced robots have become, getting them to feel the way humans do is an incredibly complex challenge.
Prosthetic hands have long struggled to replicate the dexterity and functionality of natural hands, often limiting users to a single grasp function at a time. This limitation has made everyday tasks, ...
Recent advancements in technology have revolutionized the world of assistive and medical tools, and prosthetic limbs are no exception. We've come a long way from the rigid, purely cosmetic prosthetics ...
Step inside the Soft Robotics Lab at ETH Zurich, and you find yourself in a space that is part children's nursery, part ...
Scientists at the University of Texas at Arlington, for example, have built a soft exoskeleton that fastens onto the arm and, in one recent study, reduced how hard participants’ biceps and triceps had ...
Imagine a robot that grows like a vine, wrapping around objects or people to lift them safely. It can handle fragile or heavy ...
By combining soft materials, cloud-scale simulation, and learning from human motion, researchers are teaching robots to grasp ...
Researchers at MIT CSAIL have created a new soft robotic system, RoboGrocery that uses vision technology and soft tactile sensors to determine how to pack an item without damage. Researchers from ...
A team of roboticists at the University of California San Diego and BASF Corporation has developed a unique 3D-printed soft robotic gripper that operates without the need for electronics. So, how does ...
(Nanowerk News) Roboticists have long aspired to match the dexterity and adaptability of animals with engineered creations. Soft-bodied creatures like octopuses can smoothly interact with uncertain ...
