Muscle-powered android The Protoclone—a bipedal, musculoskeletal android shown suspended in a workshop performing dynamic movements, its face obscured by a black, reflective mask.

New Year’s workout resolutions won’t help; you’re physically obsolete. Researchers have developed robotic “muscles” that are 1,000 times stronger than human beings. Scientists at UC ...

Unlike conventional robots built around rigid frames, Protoclone mimics the human skeletal, muscular, vascular, and nervous systems using synthetic components, according to tech outlet Interesting ...

A Polish robotics engineer has developed an incredible synthetic muscle arm and hand, attempting to mimic the complexity of the human body by making a dextrous but strong limb that is capable of ...

We often think of robots as superior to ourselves, but when it comes to the abilities afforded us by our muscles, robots have a hard … ...

The newly developed robotic leg is inspired by living creatures and jumps over different terrains much more manoeuvrable and energy-efficiently than previous robots.

These muscles are strong – the researchers say their 2.6-gram robot muscle can lift a 3-kilogram object, like a “mallard duck lifting a car” — and can shrink to 10 percent of their ...

Everyone, say hello to Roboy, a conceptual android endowed with plastic muscles and artificial tendons. The humanoid robot is currently under development at the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory ...

We often think of robots as superior to ourselves, but when it comes to the abilities afforded us by our muscles, robots have a hard time keeping up. Researchers at the University of Colorado Bould… ...
