This remarkable vine-like robot could be a boon for care workers

Engineers at MIT and Stanford University have developed a vine-like robotic gripper that wraps around objects before gently lifting them. The innovative robot consists of a pressurized box that releases inflatable tubes capable of expanding around objects before retracting to lift them. The engineers have designed it to safely handle fragile objects like a glass […]
