Holy cow. We’ve seen lots of soft robotics before, but this is some really cool stuff! You see, [Mike] is actually planning on building an inexpensive prosthetic robot hand using this technology.

Cornell University researchers are building soft robots with "robot blood" that is both hydraulic fluid that provides motive ...

Researchers at Cornell University have been working on batteries that can 'flow' through the internal structures of robots, ...

An “octobot” less than three inches wide is changing the robotics landscape. The octobot is the world’s first completely soft, autonomous, and untethered robot. It is free of wires ...

Researchers at North Carolina State University have created a soft robot that moves in a distinctly caterpillar-like manner. As detailed in the research paper in Science Advances by [Shuang Wu ...

A soft robot design that demonstrates the desired motion of actuation in order to safely maneuver through the lung during bronchoscopy. During a bronchoscopy, a needle is passed through the airway to ...

Researchers developed a hyperelastic torque reversal mechanism, enhancing soft robots' performance with rapid and powerful ...
