This news brings together things I’m interested in (robotic, automated) with things on my peripheral (3D measurement). It should be interested to all of you within the discrete manufacturing market. The post Automated Robotic Inspection Cells for 3D Measurement appeared first on The Manufacturing Connection.

Researchers who created a soft robot that could navigate simple mazes without human or computer direction have now built on that work, creating a “brainless” soft robot that can navigate more complex and dynamic environments. “In As with the earlier version , the new soft robots are made of ribbon-like liquid crystal elastomers.

Robotics insights Researchers led by Hangbo Zhao have developed a highly stretchable sensor using 3D electrodes inspired by origami folding patterns. The sensors can measure a strain range up to three times higher than typical sensors, making them valuable for applications in soft robotics, wearable electronics, prosthetics, and biomedicine.

Robotics insights. Researchers at North Carolina State University have created a ring-shaped soft robot capable of crawling across surfaces when exposed to elevated temperatures or infrared light. If the ring robot is symmetrical, this will essentially make it dance in place. Ringbot towing a payload across a flat surface.
