Researchers at a Chinese university have built a soft, human-inspired robot that can physically grow and shrink on command, mimicking the way human bones elongate during development. The robot, called ...

Robotics makers have faced the persistent challenge of making machines that function in the same way that humans do — earlier this month, Boston Dynamics revealed a robot that could backflip. But even ...

A newly developed AI control system using neuron-inspired learning enables soft robotic arms to learn a broad set of motions ...

Clone Robotics has released a new video of its first musculoskeletal android, Protoclone. Touted as the most anatomically accurate robot ever created, Protoclone is built on a natural human skeletal ...

Our hands are works of art. A rigid skeleton provides structure. Muscles adjust to different weights. Our skin, embedded with touch, pressure, and temperature sensors, provides immediate feedback on ...

A realistic humanoid robot, reportedly the “world’s first bipedal, musculoskeletal android” suddenly came to life in a now viral video that onlookers have claimed is “terrifying” and “dystopian.” ...

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 ...

Meet Moya, the lifelike humanoid robot from Shanghai that smiles, walks, and holds eye contact like a human. Could this mark ...
