Perhaps one of the most interesting YouTube channels to follow right now is [James Bruton’s] channel for XRobots.co.uk — he’s a prop maker, a toy maker — and as his site implies, a robotics guru. Put ...
New models increase load capacity, stiffness and configuration options for OEM linear motion systems. ISLANDIA, N.Y., April ...
Researchers have developed a new resilient actuator that could allow soft robots to operate ...
A single power plant uses hundreds of valves to control almost every aspect of its operation. Valves, in conjunction with a controlling actuator, are used for pollution control, feed water, cooling ...
Muscles are remarkably effective systems for generating controlled force, and engineers developing hardware for robots or ...
What if robots could move like real muscles? The fiber actuators remove hardware, delivering motion for robotics and wearable ...
Researchers have demonstrated miniature soft hydraulic actuators that can be used to control the deformation and motion of soft robots that are less than a millimeter thick. The researchers have also ...
Rotary actuators produce oscillating power by rotating an output shaft through a fixed arc. They are compact, simple, and efficient. They produce high instantaneous torque in either direction and ...
Big, innovative breakthroughs often result in game-changing technologies. Smaller incremental improvements in essential material components can similarly lead to significant performance and efficiency ...
