NUS researchers have developed a platform that lets lab-grown muscle tissues train themselves to record-breaking strength, ...

The next generation of soft robots might be folding and sliding as effortlessly as living tissue, say a team of engineers who have created “magnetic muscles” with 3D printing. Filling elastic, ...

Researchers at the National University of Singapore have developed a new way to make lab-grown muscles stronger by letting them train themselves, removing a major limitation in biohybrid robotics. The ...

A new robotic breakthrough out of South Korea may soon turn your clothes into assistive tech. Researchers have found a way to mass-produce ultra-thin "fabric muscles" that can flex and lift like human ...

Origami isn’t just art anymore. A team of researchers at North Carolina State University has developed a new 3D printing technique that gives origami robots a life of their own, thanks to paper-thin ...

A crawler robot made with the miura-ori origami pattern. The dark sections are affixed with thin "magnetic muscles" made by co-extruding rubber polymer and ferromagnetic particles, which move the ...
