Scientists have created the first soft robots that can walk straight out of the machines that make them. The flexible, four-legged devices were developed using a new 3D printing system, which could ...
What just happened? A team of engineers at the University of Edinburgh has unveiled a new chapter in robotics: soft, four-legged robots that can walk off a 3D printer as soon as they're made. This ...
Your average 3D printer is just a nozzle shooting out hot plastic while being moved around by a precise robotic mechanism. There’s nothing stopping you replacing the robot and moving around the ...
The boy faced many obstacles, but now, he’s pursuing mechanical engineering, robotics, and 3D printing. She thinks his story proves that determination can break cycles and set a ...
A cheetah’s powerful sprint, a snake’s lithe slither, or a human’s deft grasp: each is made possible by the seamless interplay between soft and rigid tissues. Muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones ...
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A Jacksonville-based company said its new portable 3D construction robot could help lower homebuilding costs and make housing more affordable across Northeast Florida. Forge 3D ...
Wouldn’t it be nice to 3D print an entire custom tire for small robots? It sure would, so [Angus] of [Maker’s Muse] decided to investigate whether nifty new filaments like expanding TPU offer anything ...
