Open Bionics was founded to increase the accessibility of advanced bionic technology. Founded in 2014, the company made ...

A teenage double-amputee model and social media star has helped develop the world's most advanced robotic limbs ... radically reducing the cost of multi-grip bionic hands for amputees with ...

A social media star has helped develop the world’s most advanced robotic arm – designed over four years with £2m research. Amputee singer and model Tilly Lockey, 19, says she feels like a ‘superhero’ ...

It's a game a lot of us played as children—and maybe even later in life: unspooling measuring tape to see how far it would ...

How does a robotic arm or a prosthetic hand learn a complex task like grasping and rotating a ball? Researchers address the classic 'nature versus nurture' question. The research demonstrates that the ...

BEIJING -- Imagine a robotic hand that coordinates its palm and fingers with human-like precision -- not only ... and even pouring tea while automatically adjusting its grip to prevent spills. The ...

Scientists have developed a ‘hairy robotic gripper’ inspired by ant jaws in a research project backed by Ocado and Amazon. The “versatile gripper” improves the capability of current robotic handling ...

That’s because the tape is both robust and flexible; can be stored in a small container when retracted; and can reach far when extended. After a series of trial-and-error experiments, the engineers ...
