A paper crane that flaps its wings without a single motor inside it sounds like a magic trick. But engineers at Princeton ...

Your average 3D printer is just a nozzle shooting out hot plastic while being moved around by a precise robotic mechanism. There’s nothing stopping you replacing the robot and moving around the ...

Engineers at Princeton University have built a new class of soft robots that move ...

With the fast-developing 3D printing technology, we are now able to construct houses much faster and cheaper. But is that enough to tackle the ongoing housing shortage? Across the whole Western world, ...

While there are many potential uses for soft-bodied robots, the things are still typically only built in small experimental batches. Scottish scientists are out to change that, with a ...

What just happened? A team of engineers at the University of Edinburgh has unveiled a new chapter in robotics: soft, four-legged robots that can walk off a 3D printer as soon as they're made. This ...

Scientists have achieved a breakthrough in soft robotics, creating four-legged robots capable of walking immediately after being 3D-printed. This innovation utilizes a novel upside-down printing ...

A spinning 3D printer nozzle creates soft robots with built-in air channels that bend in programmed directions, turning flat printed structures into grippers and shape-shifting devices. (Nanowerk ...

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 ...

A robot is using additive manufacturing technology to print houses. Just a few years ago, that thought would seem ludicrous. Yet 3D printing in construction by robots has become a regular feature in ...

Researchers at Leiden University have developed 3D-printed microrobots that operate without sensors or motors.

FILDZ Research founder Edgaras Janušauskas explains how 3D-printed film could push the limits of FDM and enable printable ...
