NOAA has appointed Mississippi State University to host the Cooperative Institute in the Gulf of America (CINGA), aimed at enhancing research collaboration on Gulf ecosystems. This initiative builds on a 20-year partnership with NOAA, focusing on science-based decision-making for the northern Gulf r...
Bowling Green State University (BGSU) has announced the launch of a new generation of campus delivery robots this fall, which can carry six large pizzas and five 1.5-liter drinks. This upgrade effectively doubles the carrying capacity compared to previous models, allowing for more efficient delivery...
Researchers at North Carolina State University have created a soft underwater robot inspired by feather stars, capable of three-dimensional movement using only two actuators. This innovative design significantly reduces mechanical complexity, as traditional systems typically require six actuators fo...
Researchers from UCLA and the University of Michigan have developed a small robot measuring 11 centimeters that utilizes twisted elastic rods to jump. This innovative design allows the robot to store energy through the twisting of the rods and release it suddenly, propelling the robot forward. Weigh...
Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a soft robot capable of continuous jumping without electronic control. This innovation utilizes geometric structures and light-responsive materials to enable the robot to autonomously jump under constant infrared light, overcoming previou...
Researchers at North Carolina State University have created innovative soft robots capable of continuous jumping when exposed to infrared light. These teardrop-shaped robots autonomously leap upward or forward without needing external mechanisms to reset after each jump, thanks to a unique design th...
Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed innovative teardrop-shaped soft robots that can continuously leap upward or forward when exposed to infrared light. This breakthrough showcases a novel mechanism for self-resetting jumping behavior in soft robotics, allowing the robots to...
A research team led by Professor Sun Jiefeng at Arizona State University has developed a new artificial muscle structure known as HARP (Helical Anisotropic Reinforced Actuator). Unlike traditional artificial muscles that compromise on performance, HARP offers modularity and flexibility, allowing for...
San José State University (SJSU) has announced a partnership with Teradyne aimed at enhancing educational experiences by integrating industry expertise into its curriculum. This collaboration, set to last for two years, will focus on the development of a new memory test engineering program. The init...
