The realm of robotics has undergone remarkable advancements, culminating in one of the most groundbreaking developments – synthetic muscles can lift a staggering one thousand times their own weight.
Striving to stand out in the competitive humanoid robotics market, Polish-frim Clone Robotics has unveiled its first full-scale humanoid robot, Clone Alpha. The humanoid integrates synthetic organs ...
In a lab tucked away in Poland, a group of engineers is quietly redefining what it means to build a robot. Not with circuits ...
Most robots rely on rigid, bulky parts that limit their adaptability, strength, and safety in real-world environments. Researchers developed soft, battery-powered artificial muscles inspired by human ...
As I’m typing these words, I don’t think about the synchronized muscle contractions that allow my fingers to dance across the keyboard. Or the back muscles that unconsciously tighten to hold myself ...
Sometimes nature provides the best blueprints for building effective robots. It also can provide the best material. Billions of years of natural selection has built some pretty impressive machinery, ...
As always with these kind of anthropomorphic robots: Why? The human form is the result of evolution, a messy, unguided, inefficient process. There's no reason to replicate such a configuration. Even ...
Researchers at ETH Zürich are very good at keeping robots standing upright. Back in 2022, the school’s robotics team taught the quadrupedal ANYmal robot how to hike up mountains without falling over.
NVIDIA has introduced a sweeping robotics stack aimed at accelerating the development of humanoid robots, with Isaac GR00T N1 ...
It's not clear that anyone was asking for a company to build a muscular, sinewy robot or to see a video of it dangling, helpless from a hook, but life is full of surprises and this YouTube video of ...
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 ...
