Xpeng's humanoid robot moves so realistically that crowds believed it was fake, marking a major advancement in robotics ...

MIT engineers have pushed biohybrid robotics into a new era with lab-grown muscles that ...

Our muscles are nature's actuators. The sinewy tissue is what generates the forces that make our bodies move. In recent years ...

We have all heard about the robot that had to be cut to confirm ...

While biohybrid robots that crawl and swim have been built before with lab-grown muscle, this is the first such bipedal robot that can pivot and make sharp turns. It does this by applying electricity ...

“Research on biohybrid robots, which are a fusion of biology and mechanics, is recently attracting attention as a new field of robotics featuring biological function,” says corresponding author Shoji ...

Artificial tendons make muscle-powered robots stronger and faster. They can last longer and work in tricky or dangerous places.

Researchers at the University of Tokyo have created a two-legged biohybrid robot, combining an artificial skeleton with biological muscle, which is capable of walking and pivoting underwater. Typical ...

Researchers have unveiled a microrobot that flies with speed and agility, mirroring the motion of real insects. These machines could help locate survivors in places humans and larger robots cannot ...

A bipedal robot made from an artificial skeleton and biological muscle is able to walk and pivot when stimulated with electricity, allowing it to carry out finer movements than previous biohybrid ...

This sped-up video of the robot underwater shows the legs walking forward, with the muscle contractions being stimulated by electricity. Researchers at the University of Tokyo have created a ...

South Korean scientists create ultra-thin fabric muscles that turn clothes into robotic assistants, lifting 33 pounds while weighing under half an ounce.
