The less energy that a robot uses to perform its assigned duties, the better. A new soft robotic gripper was created with this fact in mind, as it grasps and releases objects without using any ...

Unlike traditional grippers that require additional assembly and processing after 3D printing, this new soft robotic gripper is ready to use as soon as it comes off the printer.

Researchers have developed a self-healing robotic gripper for use in soft robotics that is adaptable, recyclable and resilient to damage, thanks to heat-assisted autonomous healing.

As first detailed earlier this month in Nature Communications, a team at North Carolina State University recently developed a new soft robot gripper sensitive enough to handle water droplets and ...

Robotic grippers that are made of soft materials have emerged as a potential solution to the above problem. However, current methods for adapting these grippers to complex geometries rely on ...

Researchers have developed a soft robotic gripper with a woven structure, capable of lifting objects weighing over 100 kg using only 130 grams of material. By employing a textile-inspired weaving ...

Designed for use by food processors and consumer packaged goods manufacturers, the mGripAI robot gripper from Soft Robotics combines 3D perception, soft grasping, and artificial intelligence (AI) for ...

A world-first soft robotic hand, developed by researchers at CSIRO, Australia's national science agency, could revolutionize the delicate, labor-intensive process of cultivating baby corals in ...

Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a robotic gripping device that is gentle enough to pick up a drop of water, strong enough to pick up a 6.4 kilogram (14.1 pound ...
