Our muscles are nature's actuators. The sinewy tissue is what generates the forces that make our bodies move. In recent years, engineers have used real muscle tissue to actuate "biohybrid robots" made ...

Engineers at MIT have devised an ingenious new way to produce artificial muscles for soft robots that can flex in more than one direction, similar to the complex muscles in the human body. The team ...

Scientists have been working for years to create robots powered by living muscle tissue. These biohybrid robots combine ...

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 ...
