Our skin, embedded with touch, pressure, and temperature sensors, provides immediate feedback on what we’re touching. Flexible joints make it possible to type on a keyboard or use a video game ...

Researchers have created a revolutionary robotic skin that brings machines closer to human-like touch. Made from a flexible, low-cost gel material, this skin transforms the entire surface of a robotic ...

A robotic hand can pick up 24 different objects with human-like movements that emerge spontaneously, ... via the addition of pressure sensors to the silicone skin ...

Using the VCJ technique, the researchers successfully printed a robotic hand that has internal structures similar to those of a human hand. Equipped with touch pads and pressure sensors, the ...

Designed to look like a human hand, a soft robotic device uses pressure sensors and artificial intelligence to learn how to prevent an object from slipping out of its grasp. By Karmela Padavic ...

The robot has a soft hand, which means it can interact safely with humans. The fingers are made from 3D textile-knitted fabric (using elastic and high-strength fibers), with tactile sensors and a ...

A hydrogel-based hand was poked, prodded, burned, and slashed to help robots 'feel.' Get the Popular Science daily newsletter💡 Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday.

Clone Robotics, a pioneering startup in this field, is developing advanced, soft-bodied, musculoskeletal androids designed to ...

When a current is applied, the element quickly boils the fluid – in the case of acetaldehyde, taking it from atmospheric pressure at 20 °C (68 °F) to 6.6 times that pressure at 70 °C (158 °F).

A robotic hand developed at EPFL can pick up 24 different objects with human-like movements that emerge spontaneously, thanks to compliant materials and structures rather than programming.

Building on a platform Meta developed to integrate sensors on a single robot hand, the upcoming Allegro Hand will feature control boards that encode data from the tactile sensors onto a host computer.
