Biohybrid robots work by combining biological components like muscles, plant material, and even fungi with non-biological materials. While we are pretty good at making the non-biological parts work, ...

SALT LAKE CITY — University of Utah engineers have given a bionic hand a mind of its own. Post-doctoral researcher Marshall Trout said a large percentage of amputees who get bionic hands — maybe 20% ...

Switzerland-based Mimic Robotics AG said Monday it has raised $16 million in seed funding from Elaia and Speedinvest to enable robotic hands to adapt to complex, high-precision tasks that conventional ...

Engineers have developed a pioneering prosthetic hand that can grip plush toys, water bottles, and other everyday objects like a human, carefully conforming and adjusting its grasp to avoid damaging ...

A biohybrid hand which can move objects and do a scissor gesture has been created. The researchers used thin strings of lab-grown muscle tissue bundled into sushilike rolls to give the fingers enough ...
