Over the past decades, robotic systems have been rapidly advancing, fueled by the continuous introduction of more advanced ...

Scientists have created the first soft robots that can walk straight out of the machines that make them. The flexible, four-legged devices were developed using a new 3D printing system, which could ...

This a robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material. Imagine a robot ...

A fully 3D-printed walking robot made from a single material and powered by compressed gas works without electronics or external control systems. (Nanowerk News) Imagine a robot that can walk, without ...

Additive manufacturing has enabled the deposition of highly flexible, affordable materials, easily printed using low-cost fused filament fabrication. The transition from soft lithography to digital ...

In the 21st century, 3D printing has become commonplace. Nowadays, few people remember that the first object printed using ...

On the University of Maine campus, a 50,000-square-foot factory is in the works where massive robotic arms, supervised by drones, will assemble 3D-printed houses, boats, and more. It sounds like ...

Daniella and Bryan Glaesener's three-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch-style home house is much like any home you’d come across in Georgetown, Texas. It’s a single story with a modern door, front yard, ...

Polymer-based conductive nanocomposites, particularly those incorporating carbon nanotubes, are highly promising for the ...
