A lobster’s underbelly is lined with a thin, translucent membrane that is both stretchy and surprisingly tough. This marine under-armor, as MIT engineers reported in 2019, is made from the toughest known hydrogel in nature, which also happens to be highly flexible. This combination of strength and stretch helps shield a […]
Soft and flexible E-skin advances are a subset of soft robotics field where the soft morphology of human skin is mimicked. The number of prototypes that conformed the use of biological tissues within the structure of soft robots—to develop “Biohybrid Soft Robots”—has increased in the last decade. However, no research was […]
O’Mara et al. use high-resolution GPS tracking and atmospheric models to show that, similar to diurnal birds, European free-tailed bats use uplifting winds generated by the nocturnal energy landscape to rapidly ascend over 1,600 m above ground level and achieve maximum self-powered airspeeds over 130 km/hour.
