If the argument that art imitates life holds true, than MIT’s fish-like soft robot ― a robot powered by fluid flowing through flexible channels ― is art. Researchers from the prestigious university ...

A group of engineering students have developed a robotic fish to help solve mysteries of the ocean. The soft robotic underwater fish, called Eve, blends into a coral reef environment, allowing ...

(CNN) — Some 400 kilometers (250 miles) from the nearest sea, engineering students at Switzerland’s ETH Zurich are hard at work on cutting-edge robots that may change the way the world’s oceans are ...

A 13mm-long black fish silently patrols the ocean, not to feed or predate, but to clean. Soft and squishy to touch, the flesh of this fish is made of the same material as pearls are made of. As it ...

Researchers at Cornell University have been working on batteries that can 'flow' through the internal structures of robots, kind of like how blood in humans' veins powers our bodies. The team has been ...

Cornell University researchers are building soft robots with “robot blood” that is both hydraulic fluid that provides motive force and at the same time a battery that stores and delivers energy ...

How can some fish, like tuna, achieve remarkable speed while others, like eels, excel in maneuverability? A research team from Peking University (PKU) has developed a novel robotic platform that sheds ...
