Scientists at the University of Tokyo and Waseda University in Japan have developed a Terminator-like hand powered by lab-grown muscle tissues, known as multiple muscle tissue actuators (MuMuTAs).

Researchers from the University of Tokyo and Waseda University in Japan have developed a biohybrid robot hand powered by lab-grown human muscle tissue, capable of performing complex gestures like a ...

The complex combination of movements required for this simple scissor gesture is a big step up from the capabilities of previous biohybrid robots. A biohybrid hand which can move objects and do a ...

A biohybrid hand which can move objects and do a scissor gesture has been built by a team at the University of Tokyo and Waseda University in Japan. The researchers used thin strings of lab-grown ...

Researchers out of Northwestern University have developed a unique technology that delivers signals from the brain directly to muscles in the hand. The system bypasses the spinal cord, thus enabling ...

Six years ago a scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., issued a unique challenge: build a robotic arm using artificial muscles that could arm wrestle a human. The results ...

Scientists in Japan have developed a robotic hand eerily reminiscent of The Terminator. The innovation marks a major step toward realistic prosthetics, moving us closer to sci-fi-style robotic limbs.
