Scientists have developed a “paper bird” robot that is small enough to fit inside the human body to perform operations. Built by researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Zurich, the ...
Powered by nothing more than puffs of air, robots molded from paper and silicone rubber can bend, twist, grip and even lift more than 100 times their weight.
Once assembled, the paper robot is capable of taking steps, mimicking the walking motion of a bipedal creature. This is achieved through a combination of mechanical principles and precise engineering.
A robot hand developed by the University of Tokyo's Ishikawa Oku Lab is reportedly so adept at the game rock, paper, scissors that it is unbeatable against a human opponent.
The latest rice paper robots were detailed in a paper, titled ‘Sustainable fabrication of biodegradable soft robotic actuators’, published in the Proceeding of the 2024 IEEE 7th International ...
