The Genesis Project represents a significant leap forward in the convergence of generative AI and physics simulation, reshaping the way robots are trained and developed. By integrating innovative ...

A team of researchers provides a perspective on the role that soft actuators and energy harvesters play in building ...

Alphabet previously killed a robotics project called Everyday Robots. Now it's saying goodbye to another one: an exoskeleton project called Skip.

Have you ever wondered what it would take to train a robot to walk, grasp objects, or navigate a cluttered room with the same ease as a human? For many, the idea of teaching robots these complex tasks ...

Although soft-bodied robots themselves can be fairly simple, low-cost devices, they typically require complex onboard electronics to control their locomotion. Such is not the case with a new bot, ...

While there are many potential uses for soft-bodied robots, the things are still typically only built in small experimental batches. Scottish scientists are out to change that, with a ...

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 ...

Soft robotics is poised to revolutionize industries with its flexibility and adaptability. This Collection will highlight original research on the design, fabrication, and application of soft robotic ...

When disaster strikes and buildings collapse, every second counts for emergency responders searching for survivors trapped beneath rubble. Traditional tools often fall short in these dangerous, ...

Whether artificial hands with an especially gentle touch or an endoscope that crawls through the intestines like a worm, ...
