- Artificial tendons give muscle-powered robots a boost
MIT engineers developed artificial tendons that could connect robotic skeletons and biological muscle tissue Made from tough and flexible hydrogel, the tendons could be used in various bio-hybrid robots
- Vine-inspired robotic gripper gently lifts heavy and fragile objects
Like a growing vine, a new robotic gripper can snake around and lift a variety of objects, including a glass vase and a watermelon, offering a gentler approach than conventional gripper designs A larger version of the robo-tendrils can also safely lift a human out of bed
- Robot, know thyself: New vision-based system teaches . . . - MIT News
A 3D-printed robotic arm holds a pencil as it trains using random movements and a single camera — part of a new control system called Neural Jacobian Fields (NJF) Rather than relying on sensors or hand-coded models, NJF allows robots to learn how their bodies move in response to motor commands purely from visual observation, offering a pathway to more flexible, affordable, and self-aware
- Robots that spare warehouse workers the heavy lifting
The company’s robotic arm is made by the German industrial robotics giant KUKA The robots are mounted on a custom mobile base with an onboard computing systems so they can navigate to docks and adjust their positions inside trailers autonomously while lifting
