Researchers at the Bristol Robotics Laboratory have unveiled a innovative adaptive robot suction mechanism that draws inspiration from the biological structures of octopus suckers. This robot octopus ...

Underwater octopuses change their body color and texture in the blink of an eye to blend perfectly into their surroundings ...

Soon, a flexible octopus-like robot could be completely free of wires or internal electronics. Engineers at Rice University have unveiled a new soft robotic arm controlled by laser beams.

Scientists inspired by the octopus's nervous system have developed a robot that can decide how to move or grip objects by sensing its environment. Scientists inspired by the octopus's nervous system ...

One of the challenges that researchers in robotics face is creating robotic arms and gripers that can handle objects of varied sizes and shapes. Researchers at Harvard have developed a robot that can ...

Researchers have invested heavily in improving the abilities of robots to manipulate objects. Back in September, last year, we had Nvidia unveil a new algorithm⁠—6-Dof-GraspNet⁠—that allowed robots to ...

A research team in South Korea has developed a soft robot named Octoid that can mimic the movement and behavior of an octopus in its natural habitat. The robot's "triple-in-one" system enables it to ...

A newly developed rubbery, octopuslike robot can change colors to hide or stand out in its environment. Scientists at Harvard have recently begun developing flexible robots from elastic plastics and ...

Researchers have developed an octopus-inspired soft robotic arm that can grip, move, and manipulate a wide range of objects. Its flexible, tapered design, complete with suction cups, gives the gripper ...
