ETH Zurich and Max Planck Institute Develop Robot Leg Powered by Artificial Muscles
Sep 9, 2024, 03:20 PM
Researchers from ETH Zurich, the Max Planck Institute, and CUBoulder have developed a robot leg powered by artificial muscles, outperforming conventional designs. The new technology, which uses multi-layered electrohydraulic actuators, allows the robot leg to stand straight on uneven terrain and jump nimbly. This innovation eliminates the need for DC motors or high-powered AI programs, making robots more agile and energy-efficient. The study, reported by TechCrunch and Tech Xplore, highlights the potential for these artificial muscles to revolutionize the field of robotics.
