We’ve used slime, liquid metal, and even bugs to create robots—why not try wood, too? Researchers at the National University of Singapore and China’s Northeast Forest University have teamed up to ...

A robot hand made from wood could be used in extremely hot environments while still maintaining a delicate touch. Most robotic hand grippers are made from soft plastics, which can pick up objects ...

Stretchable, transparent electronics that can bend, roll, and even mimic human skin are moving ...

What if the future of robotics and prosthetics could fit in the palm of your hand? Enter the Wuji Hand, a new innovation that redefines what’s possible in human-like motion and precision. With its 20 ...

Researchers have designed a low-cost, energy-efficient robotic hand that can grasp a range of objects – and not drop them – using just the movement of its wrist and the feeling in its ‘skin’.

The invention of a wooden robotic gripper can be a viable alternative to using traditional soft plastics or metal. It also upends traditional robotics design. Researchers from the National University ...

A robotic hand can pick up 24 different objects with human-like movements that emerge spontaneously, thanks to compliant materials and structures rather than programming. When you reach out your hand ...

Inspired by the effortless way humans handle objects without seeing them, engineers have developed a new approach that enables a robotic hand to rotate objects solely through touch, without relying on ...
