Soft robots are only as capable as the artificial muscles that drive them, and for years those muscles have forced a trade-off between strength and flexibility. A new magnetic polymer design is ...

A research team at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore has developed miniature, grain-sized robots capable of carrying multiple drugs and delivering them directly to targeted areas ...

Despite their remarkable flexibility, today’s soft artificial muscles struggle to deliver meaningful force. This ...

In medical technology, microrobots are the next big thing. With dimensions below that of a sand grain, these microbots are being designed to navigate the body’s complex biological environment.
