Soon, a flexible octopus-like robot could be completely free of wires or internal electronics. Engineers at Rice University ...

The material of a soft robot arm reacts to laser light. Light patterns projected onto it move the robot arm at will.

Robots and cameras of the future could be ... discovered they could manipulate the three-dimensional orientation of liquid crystals by controlling light exposures of a photosensitive material ...

Instead they’re building systems capable of picturing the three-dimensional world and taking action. The work could have a big impact on robotics ... that this pattern of pixels is a dog or ...

2D surface to a three-dimensional one with bumps and pits, they report today (Oct. 12) in the journal Science. This technology could one day be used in soft robots, which are typically covered in ...
