Although an increasing number of devices are being developed for use on or in our bodies, such devices tend not to be very … "body-like." A new 3D printing resin could change that, by allowing for ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich and MIT created a multi-material 3D printed hand using a process invented to enable the innovation of soft robotics. (Thomas Buchner via Courthouse News Service) (CN) — To ...

Although we may think of 3D-printed items as being hard, they're actually often made from soft gels, as is the case with bioprinted body parts. A new system now allows such objects to be printed at a ...

Researchers have unveiled a new 3D‑printable material that can be stretched, sutured, and implanted, edging artificial organs ...

Although we’ve seen plenty of dextrous robo-hands before—including ones that can help robots exit cars in a very creepy way—they’re usually rigid and clanky. (To be fair, they are robot hands.) Some ...

Researchers at South Korea’s Jeju National University examined the latest research and developments in fabricating soft robots using 3D printing technologies. Their study concludes that 3D printing is ...

Usually created from highly compliant, often bio-inspired materials, soft microrobots occupy a fascinating sub-field of robotics. With their flexibility and adaptability, they find deployment in an ...
