Max Planck Institute and ETH Zurich Develop Robotic Leg with Artificial Muscles
Sep 9, 2024, 09:10 AM
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute and ETH Zurich have developed the first robotic leg powered by artificial muscles. Inspired by living creatures, this innovative design allows the robotic leg to jump across different terrains in an energy-efficient manner. The breakthrough, which outperforms conventional designs, was published in Nature Communications. The electro-hydraulic muscles, as reported by TechCrunch, enable the robotic leg to stand straight on uneven terrain, marking a significant advancement in soft robotics.
