An untethered isoperimetric soft robot.

Science robotics
For robots to be useful for real-world applications, they must be safe around humans, be adaptable to their environment, and operate in an untethered manner. Soft robots could potentially meet these requirements; however, existing soft robotic archit...

Modeling engagement in long-term, in-home socially assistive robot interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders.

Science robotics
Socially assistive robotics (SAR) has great potential to provide accessible, affordable, and personalized therapeutic interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). However, human-robot interaction (HRI) methods are still limited in...

Sustainable manufacturing of sensors onto soft systems using self-coagulating conductive Pickering emulsions.

Science robotics
Compliant sensors based on composite materials are necessary components for geometrically complex systems such as wearable devices or soft robots. Composite materials consisting of polymer matrices and conductive fillers have facilitated the manufact...

A ferrobotic system for automated microfluidic logistics.

Science robotics
Automated technologies that can perform massively parallelized and sequential fluidic operations at small length scales can resolve major bottlenecks encountered in various fields, including medical diagnostics, -omics, drug development, and chemical...

Autonomic perspiration in 3D-printed hydrogel actuators.

Science robotics
In both biological and engineered systems, functioning at peak power output for prolonged periods of time requires thermoregulation. Here, we report a soft hydrogel-based actuator that can maintain stable body temperatures via autonomic perspiration....

A vision for future bioinspired and biohybrid robots.

Science robotics
Bioinspired and biohybrid robots can help respond to diverse, sustainable application needs.

Metal or muscle? The future of biologically inspired robots.

Science robotics
Biology has inspired the development of agile robots, and it is now teaching us how to grow machines from living cells.

Soft biohybrid morphing wings with feathers underactuated by wrist and finger motion.

Science robotics
Since the Wright Flyer, engineers have strived to develop flying machines with morphing wings that can control flight as deftly as birds. Birds morph their wing planform parameters simultaneously-including sweep, span, and area-in a way that has prov...
