Scientists have developed HydroSpread, a novel technique for building soft robots on water, with wide-ranging possibilities ...

The first robot, dubbed the HydroFlexor, can paddle across water with fin-like motions, while the second robot, dubbed the ...

Imagine tiny robots zipping across the surface of a lake to check water quality or searching for people in flooded areas. This technology is moving closer to reality thanks to work by researchers at ...

Scientists build insect-inspired soft robots on water using HydroSpread, a new fabrication method for flexible films.

Picture a robot controlled by micromotors so small and light that it suspends itself over water like a bug. With engineers at ...

Murray Leinster’s short story Things Pass By, published in 1945, includes what may be the first description of 3D printers: But this constructor is both efficient and flexible. I feed magnetronic ...

SEOUL, South Korea--(BUSINESS WIRE)--DEXLEVO has completed its pre-IPO funding of KRW 26 billion. It thus increased its valuation by six times compared to the Series B funding in 2018 thanks to its ...

In spite of their more recent commercialization, the discovery of liquid crystals dates back to the late 19th century to two European scientists, Austrian German Otto Lehmann and Friedrich Reinitzer.

Lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs) are formed by the self-assembly of amphiphilic molecules in a solvent, resulting in well‐defined mesophases whose nanostructured order is amenable to precise ...
