Humanoid robots a 'strong' step closer with synthetic muscle
- 5 years ago
Humanoid robots are a 'strong' step closer after engineers developed synthetic muscle that can lift a thousand times its own weight.
The 3D-printable synthetic soft muscle, which doesn't need an external compressor or high voltage equipment as previous attempts required, also has a strain density -
expansion per gram - FIFTEEN times larger than natural muscle.
