The University of Edinburgh has shared a 3D-printed "soft robot" made by a team of theirs who claim it can walk off the machine that made it.

A team of roboticists has developed a unique 3D-printed soft robotic gripper that operates without the need for electronics.

As reported in the journal IEEE Transactions on Robotics, the 3D-printed pads function as both soft skin for a robotic arm and pressure-based mechanical sensors.

The I-Seed is a 4D-printed robot, meaning it was created using 3D printing technology, but it can alter its shape and properties when exposed to environmental stimuli like light and temperature.

Researchers have created a 4D printed soft robot that can crawl and dance using only changes in temperature, offering potential advancements in sustainable, autonomous robotics.

This September marks the first National Science Popularization Month.On September 5, the China Association for Science and ...
