A team of roboticists at the University of California San Diego and BASF Corporation has developed a unique 3D-printed soft robotic gripper that operates without the need for electronics. So, how does ...

This soft robotic gripper is not only 3D printed in one print, it also doesn't need any electronics to work. This soft robotic gripper is not only 3D printed in one print, it also doesn't need any ...

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Innovations in Robotic Grippers, Metal 3D Printing, Welding, Joining, Packaging, and Plastic Recycling Technologies" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's ...

To mimic the dexterity of human hands, robot grippers have undergone significant advancements to pick and place a variety of products ever more deftly. Many of these advances were based on giving ...

When we think about robots, we think about complex electronic devices. We're conditioned to think about robots as sophisticated machines controlled by intricate programming and powered by advanced ...

Back in the previous century, one of the most common expectations about the future was that it would include robot assistants for all. The Jetsons had one, the crew of the C-57D had one, the Robinsons ...

1. Joints - The Foundation of Movement Joints are the moving links in a robotic arm. They let the arm bend, rotate, or change direction-similar to how our elbows and wrists work. In a 6-axis robotic ...

Applications for 3D printing/additive manufacturing has grown by leaps and bounds over the past decade—particularly for its use to produce production- and assembly-ready parts, not just prototypes.

Researchers have demonstrated miniature soft hydraulic actuators that can be used to control the deformation and motion of soft robots that are less than a millimeter thick. The researchers have also ...

It is an old movie trope: a robot grips something and accidentally crushes it with its super robot strength. A little feedback goes a long way, of course, but futuristic robots may also want to employ ...

Researchers from North Carolina State University have demonstrated miniature soft hydraulic actuators that can be used to control the deformation and motion of soft robots that are less than a ...
