This hopping soft robot harnesses the same physics as a toy popper. When the structure of a popper buckles, the energy released sends the toy flying through the air. Now, researchers have harnessed th...
The butterfly-wing-inspired architecture allows precious metal catalysts (white) to be strategically placed on the porous scaffold (gray) so that the catalytic reaction is much more efficient and cost...
Using a robot to disrupt the gait cycle of participants, researchers discovered that feedforward mechanisms controlled by the cerebellum and feedback mechanisms controlled at the spinal level determin...
Researchers have developed an octopus-inspired robot can grip, move, and manipulate a wide range of objects. Credit: Elias Knubben, ZhexinXie, August Domel, and Li Wen...
