A team of researchers from South Korea has developed a thin, robotic actuator based on the movements of real human muscles. Actuators are, effectively, the ‘muscles’ of robotic machines. They are ...

Researchers have developed an intelligent artificial muscle that mimics biological muscle–tendon systems. The team ...

Future robots could soon have a lot more muscle power. Northwestern University engineers have developed a soft artificial muscle, paving the way for untethered animal- and human-scale robots. The new ...

It’s a bizarre sight: With a short burst of light, a sponge-shaped robot scoots across a tiled surface. Flipped on its back, it repeatedly twitches as if doing sit-ups. By tinkering with the light’s ...

Warehouse work is intense, repetitive and physically demanding. Kinisi Robotics, a U.S.-based startup, wants to change that. Its newest innovation, the Kinisi 01, also known as KR1, is a powerful ...

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 ...

H2L, a Tokyo-based technology startup, has launched the Capsule Interface. This breakthrough device lets you control robots with your entire body, transmitting not just movement but also physical ...

A premapped course, a crew of handlers and a world-beating time: here’s what this Beijing half marathon reveals about how far humanoid robots have come—and how far they haven’t ...
