A team of researchers from North Carolina State University has created a new 3D-printing method that builds paper-thin ...

A crawler robot made with the miura-ori origami pattern. The dark sections are affixed with thin "magnetic muscles" made by co-extruding rubber polymer and ferromagnetic particles, which move the ...

Cynthia Sung, head of the Sung Robotics Lab within Penn’s GRASP Lab, is especially interested in getting high school students into engineering. Self-folding origami robots, anyone? Cynthia Sung.

The next generation of soft robots might be folding and sliding as effortlessly as living tissue, say a team of engineers who have created “magnetic muscles” with 3D printing. Filling elastic, ...

Scientists at the University of Washington have developed flying robots that change shape in mid-air, all without batteries, as originally published in the research journal Science Robotics. These ...
