The pelvis is often called the keystone of upright locomotion. More than any other part of our lower body, it has been ...

The booth became a major attraction, showcasing the future of robotics with applications featuring soft bionic muscles, adaptable joints, and human-like arms.

A POSTECH research team has developed a thin, flexible robotic actuator inspired by human muscle proteins. As thin as paper, yet capable of generating strong forces, this robot can maneuver ...

Researchers have digitally reconstructed the leg muscles of an ancient human ancestor that lived 3.2 million years ago, revealing they could stand and walk upright like modern humans.

The first comprehensive cell atlas of ageing human muscle reveals the intricate genetic and cellular processes behind muscle deterioration and mechanisms to counteract it.

3D muscle reconstruction shows 3.2 million-year-old “Lucy” walked upright "Lucy’s muscles suggest that she was as proficient at bipedalism as we are." ...

The hand is made of a 3D-printed plastic base, with tendons of human muscle tissue which move the fingers. Until now, biohybrid devices have typically been on a much smaller scale (about 1 ...

"Discoveries from research like this have huge potential for developing therapeutic strategies that promote healthier ageing," the researchers say.

Engineers have developed a new soft, flexible device that makes robots move by expanding and contracting -- just like a human muscle. To demonstrate their new device, called an actuator, the ...

Researchers are using the human body as inspiration in the next generation of robots. It's like anatomy, but electronic. Electro-hydraulic muscles are more energy efficient than motor driven robots.

Researchers from Tokyo created artificial self-healing human skin for robots to give them a more human-like appearance.

ETH Zurich Professor Ori Bar-Nur and his team grow muscle cells in the laboratory. In this case, they are mouse cells, but the researchers are also interested in human and cow cells. Promising ...
