In a remarkable fusion of biology and technology, researchers from the University of Tokyo and Waseda University have developed a groundbreaking biohybrid robotic hand that utilizes lab-grown human ...

Hands can grab things, build things, communicate, and we control them intuitively with nothing more than a thought. To those who miss a hand, a prosthesis can be a life-changing tool for carrying out ...

A bipedal robot made from an artificial skeleton and biological muscle is able to walk and pivot when stimulated with electricity, allowing it to carry out finer movements than previous biohybrid ...

This sped-up video of the robot underwater shows the legs walking forward, with the muscle contractions being stimulated by electricity. Researchers at the University of Tokyo have created a ...

Imagine a rubber band that turns into a steel cable on command. Now imagine it’s inside a robot. That’s the basic trick of a new artificial muscle built by researchers at the Ulsan National Institute ...

Throughout history, visions of the future included human-looking robots. These days we have plenty of robots, but they don’t look like people. They look like disembodied arms, cars, and over-sized ...

What we do when we need large amount of muscles (meat)? Farm animals. What will large corporations do when they need human muscles at large scale? Grow it in a lab. Yeah, right. What we do when we ...
