Researchers have created a new type of fiber that can perform like a muscle actuator, in many ways better than other options that exist today. And, most importantly, these muscle-like fibers are ...
(Nanowerk News) Prof. Sang Ouk Kim’s group at KAIST has developed a new type of artificial muscle fiber based on graphene-liquid crystal elastomer composites. This new artificial muscle has been ...
To effectively replicate the movements of humans and animals, robots should integrate muscle-like structures. These artificial muscles should attain an optimal performance across all relevant ...
Hidden inside every organ, microscopic fibers form a scaffolding that quietly shapes how we move, think, and heal. For the ...
Robots intended to work alongside people or operate in confined, unpredictable environments need actuators that can bend, ...
A simple light-based method is uncovering hidden fiber networks inside the brain and body, even in tissue slides over 100 years old.
(Nanowerk News) Mimicking the human body, specifically the actuators that control muscle movement, is of immense interest around the globe. In recent years, it has led to many innovations to improve ...
