A new battery design not only provides energy,not only provides energy, but facilitates automatic surfacing and diving mechanisms in electronic, underwater equipment.
Results for "robot"
Designing “fluid brains” to take the edge off soft robots
Rigid elements are holding soft robots back from their full potential, and new research suggests swapping in fluid-based systems.
Silicon retinas to help robots navigate the world
Fusing data from multiple moving cameras helps robots generate realistic 3D maps of their surroundings.
A robotic arm modeled after the human shoulder
Using soft materials, researchers have developed a robot arm that mimics the rotational movement and structure of the shoulder.
Liquid metal robots learn from leeches
Researchers leech off the natural world to develop dynamic liquid metal robots for electrical circuits.
Crash-landing robots take inspiration from geckos
Insights gained from the hard landings of tree-climbing geckos leads to better and controlled perching in robotic aerial vehicles.
Microrobots that conquer all terrains
Microrobots dubbed “microwalkers” can both swim and walk, allowing them to transverse challenging biological environments.
Algae-based microrobots fight cancer
Living microrobots made from algae were weaponized to help fight tumors by improving the effectiveness of cancer therapies.
Soft robot minimizes form and maximizes function
Complex environments require soft robots to adapt to minimal spaces without sacrificing the ability to complete dexterous tasks.
Robotic eyes unconstrained by human perception
Forcing robots to see through a human’s eyes is limiting. Smart robotic eyes that can think for themselves could be the answer.
