Patrick Danner from Empa's Laboratory for Functional Polymers is working on actuators made of soft materials. Artificial muscles don't just get robots moving: One day, they could support people at ...

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 ...

Researchers are beginning to bridge the gap between humans and robots by inventing technology to make it safer for them to work alongside each other. As part of this effort, researchers at the Wyss ...

On the Moon, taking a simple step could quietly damage your body. With weaker gravity, your muscles do less work, your bones carry less weight and, over time, both start to fade. That problem does not ...

A new 3-D printing technique can create paper-thin "magnetic muscles," which can be applied to origami structures to make them move. By infusing rubber-like elastomers with materials called ...
