Researchers have developed muscle actuators that flex strongly enough to enable small robots to jump, swim, walk, and grasp.

MIT engineers have built a paper-thin swimming robot powered by living muscle cells that respond to flashes of light, ...

Insects have long been a source of inspiration for robotics engineers. They are small, agile, and can squeeze into spaces ...

Massachusetts Institute of Technology engineers developed a robot powered by living muscle cells that move in response to flashes of light.

Newswise — A new type of bio-inspired robotic actuator is the foundation for lighter-weight robots that won’t need connection to an external power source, can survive and manipulate objects in boiling ...

Striving to stand out in the competitive humanoid robotics market, Polish-frim Clone Robotics has unveiled its first full-scale humanoid robot, Clone Alpha. The humanoid integrates synthetic organs ...

A Cleveland State University study shows that a simplified surface EMG onset-detection pipeline can drive a Baxter robotic ...

Researchers said on Monday they had designed the first robotic leg with "artificial muscles"—oil-filled bags allowing machines to move more like humans—that can jump nimbly across a range of surfaces.

Few things make the career jump from regional cuisine delicacy to robotics actuator. Yet, in research vaguely reminiscent of RoboCop, scientists have used skeletal muscle from a literal frog leg as an ...

Design of the robots has evolved through the research to the current state, where the muscle tissue is secured to the ...
