MIT researchers built a soft drone that can not only fly but also pick up and move objects, similar to a flying hand. This high-tech drone is equipped with a soft, grasping mechanism. In the video ...

To test the new system, the researchers printed a small, working model of a human knee joint. It had rigid “bones” and ...

The makeshift robots can perform different tasks depending on the properties of the soft objects and how the skins are applied. “We can take the skins and wrap them around one object to perform a task ...

This year, GPT-3, a large language model capable of understanding text, responding to questions and generating new writing examples, has drawn international media attention.The model, released by ...

"It's what the robotic hands of the future need because they won't just be handling large, heavy objects. They'll need to work with delicate materials such as glass, fabric, or soft toys. That's why a ...

New 'Robotic Skins' technology developed by Yale researchers flips that notion on its head, allowing users to animate the inanimate and turn everyday objects into robots. Advanced Search Home ...

“When pressed by this bionic finger, hard objects retain their shape, whereas soft objects deform when sufficient pressure is applied,” says Wuyi engineer Jian Yi Luo, the study's senior author.

One can easily convert almost any soft object into a touch-input device that can detect both touch position and surface displacement by embedding multiple FuwaFuwa sensor modules in the object. A ...

Apr. 3, 2023 — Newly created soft-rigid robotic fingers incorporate powerful sensors along their entire length, enabling them to produce a robotic hand that could accurately identify objects ...
