Researchers 3D-printed a robotic hand, a six-legged robot, a 'heart' pump, and a metamaterial cube. To call soft robotic hands “ complex ” is a bit of an understatement.

3D-printed designs are usually limited to fast-drying polymers, but a new method enables wild, soft robotic possibilities. Andrew Paul Nov 15, 2023 3:00 PM EST ...

Technology 3D-printed robotic hand has working tendons and muscles The ability to 3D print using bendy and rigid materials at the same time could open up new possibilities for robotics By Alex Wilkins ...

All these limitations kneecap what a robotic hand—and other functional structures—can do. Then 3D inkjet printing came along. Common versions of these printers squeeze a liquid resin material through ...

Scientists have designed a 3D-printed robotic hand that can grasp and hold objects using the correct amount force. It was created by a team at the University of Cambridge who fitted 16 sensors to ...

Each of the robotic hand’s various parts were made from different polymers of varying softness and rigidity, using a new laser-scanning technique that lets 3D printers create “special plastics ...

Researchers have leveraged new 3D-printing technology to fabricate a robotic hand complete with bones, ligaments, and tendons that are all made using different polymers. The product proves a new ...

To solve this problem, the scientists set about 3D printing a range of devices (including a six-legged robot, a functional heart pump and a material that absorbs vibrations from its surroundings ...

The latest advances in 3D printing have been put to good use by scientists at ETH Zürich, who have now unveiled an incredibly human-like robotic hand. What makes this hand unique is that it’s ...
