Developing the color-changing robot took a year. "This quality is one of the advantages of soft machines — there is very little time between idea and prototype," Morin said.

Imagine a world where robots creep up on you: Electric motors just a gentle whir, hard shells changing color to blend in with their surroundings. Well, ...

An updated version of that robot has now surfaced from researchers at Harvard University that is designed exactly like the robot from last year with one notable addition. The new version of the ...

A new inflatable robot changes color when fluid is pumped into its "body." The high-tech camouflage could be a boon to stealth science.

Soft robots are made of silicone and use hydraulic controls to move across a surface or lift an object. Researchers at Harvard University have gotten these guys to walk around (albeit while ...

Flexible robots, in (not quite) living color If you model your robot on a cephalopod, it should change colors, right?

A new robot can change color to matchor stand out fromits environment. What does that mean for the future of soft robotics?

These robots are test-beds for ideas about form and color and movement." Just as with the soft robots, the "color layers" used in the camouflage start as molds created using 3D printers.

At the Mudam's Publics Department, a museum dedicated to contemporary art in Luxembourg, a summer project by the artist and designer Yuri Suzuki is making music from art. Based on his work Colour ...

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University used machine learning and color cameras to train robots to grab clear and shiny objects.
