Korean researchers have developed an advanced soft robot, OCTOID, inspired by the multifunctional abilities of octopuses.

A soft robotic system uses liquid crystal elastomers to merge shape shifting, gripping, and color change, demonstrating fully ...

For the first time, engineers have digitally recreated the complex muscular architecture of the octopus arm and its unique movements, which opens the door to developing soft robotics with ...

Octopus arms coordinate nearly infinite degrees of freedom to perform complex movements such as reaching, grasping, fetching, crawling, and swimming. How these animals achieve such a wide range of ...

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. The team from the University of Bristol’s Faculty of ...

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 ...

The latest addition to a growing menagerie of octopus-robots has a lot going for it: It's small, completely squishy, it doesn't need a battery — and it farts. The adorable palm-sized robot is the work ...
