A study conducted at the University of Trento has revealed that dandelion clocks submerged in water have air trapping capacities. The discovery was actually inspired by the high-school daughter of professor Nicola Pugno, who noticed that the soft seed heads of dandelions turn […]
Researchers from UC San Diego have produced a soft walking robot with four legs controlled by a pneumatic oscillating three-valve circuit made from tubes and valves. This soft quadruped robot can walk in any direction and avoid obstacles, all without electronics! A turtle-like […]
Robotic exoskeletons – wearable shells constructed from different robotic parts – improve the stability and strength of their users. Most exoskeletons to date have been made using a monocentric fixed-axis rotating hinge model: a simple and effective solution, but one that does not reflect the polycentric movement […]
