entrepreneur seeks to improve S. Korea’s favorite food
Kang’s robot, composed of a simple, flexible mechanical arm, is capable of frying 100 chickens in two hours. In fried-chicken-obsessed South Korea, restaurants serving the nation’s favorite fast-food dish dot every…
‘Brainless’ robot can navigate complex obstacles
Researchers who created a soft robot that could navigate simple mazes without human or computer direction have now built on that work, creating a “brainless” soft robot that can navigate…
Exploring the effects of hardware implementation on the exploration space of evolvable robots
The ARE Robot Fabricator (RoboFab). Evolved robot skeletons (green) are 3D printed, the robot arm equips them with a central ‘head’ (red) and then attaches modular ‘organs’ (dark blue) to…
Scientists create soft and scalable robotic hand based on multiple materials
Credit: Alves et al Robots based on soft materials are often better at replicating the appearance, movements and abilities of both humans and animals. While there are now countless soft…
