Explore the innovative 3D-printed robot that walks and climbs without electronics, thanks to pneumatic pressure and advanced ...

Internals of 3D printed “print and fold” robot. [Image source: MIT CSAIL] Robot design traditionally separates the body geometry from the mechanics of the gait, but they both have a profound ...

Scientists at the Bioinspired Robotics Laboratory at the University of California San Diego (UC San Diego) have developed a robot that can be printed directly in one go using a 3D printer and can ...

To achieve this feat, researchers aimed to use the simplest technology available: a desktop 3D-printer and an off-the-shelf ...

Instead of using traditional hard parts like motors and wires, the entire robot is made from soft plastic material. One of ...

Most people likely think of robots as complex electronic devices, made up of many parts that have to be assembled in factories. An experimental new non-electronic bot, however, can be 3D-printed all ...

In a paper to be presented at the 2025 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI2025), the researchers used Xstrings to print a range of colorful and unique objects that included a red ...

[Ivan Miranda] isn’t afraid to dream big, and hopes to soon build a 3D printed giant robot he can ride around ... inspired by those wooden hand models sold as home decor at IKEA.

This a robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material. Imagine a ...
