Simple robot design exceeds human hand in some core motions
The human hand is a dexterous and versatile machine. Scientists have conventionally tried to replicate these traits in robots by copying the biological mechanics of the hand, resulting in complex and difficult-to-control structures. An alternative solution to these challenges was proposed in a new study published in Advanced Science: the BioflexBot, a novel robot that mimics and even exceeds core motions of the hand with a simple design.

Butterfly-inspired ceramic microscrolls unroll with magnets to power tiny robots
Researchers at the University of Stuttgart and the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research have developed tiny rolls that can be unrolled and rolled up in a controlled manner using a magnet. The model for this was the proboscis of butterflies. These smart materials enable the development of more efficient drive technologies for micro- and soft robotics, a field of research of great economic importance. The results have been published in the journal Advanced Materials.

Scientists develop 'RoboDojo,' a unified platform to evaluate embodied AI
The Multimedia Laboratory (MMLab) at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) has spearheaded the development of "RoboDojo," a unified benchmarking platform designed to evaluate robotic manipulation across simulated and physical environments. Co-initiated by Professor Ping Luo, associate director (AI Research and Tech Transfer) of the HKU School of Computing and Data Science (CDS), and his Ph.D. student Tianxing Chen, the project was developed in collaboration with researchers from nearly 20 leading…
