Pneumatic actuation harnesses compressed air to generate mechanical force and motion with inherent compliance, high power density and rapid response. Traditional pneumatic cylinders remain ubiquitous ...

Soft-bodied robots are unlocking a new era of adaptive machines that can safely interact with the human body, squeeze through tight spaces, and propel themselves autonomously. Designing soft robots ...

(A) FEA-based numerical simulation to optimize the actuator’s geometry and actuation parameters. (B) Using FFF technology, the molds are printed in rigid material and the sacrificial cores are in a ...

Researchers have developed a soft robotic hand that delicately handles eggs while lifting heavier objects using AI-designed ...

A Spanish automation specialist has developed a system for applying labels automatically to individual Serrano hams – an ...

Researchers have created millimetre-scale robots that use ultrasonic sound and tiny resonators to generate movement, ...

[Tazer] built a small desktop-sized robotic arm, and it was more or less functional. However, he wanted to improve its ability to pick things up, and attaching a pneumatic gripper seemed like the ...
