By weaving magnet-responsive fibers into fabric, scientists have created textiles that move, flex, and feel, bringing ...

A team of researchers from North Carolina State University has created a new 3D-printing method that builds paper-thin ...

A new 3-D printing technique can create paper-thin "magnetic muscles," which can be applied to origami structures to make them move. By infusing rubber-like elastomers with materials called ...

Researchers have developed a technique that uses chains of magnetic nanoparticles to manipulate elastic polymers in three dimensions, which could be used to remotely control new 'soft robots.' ...
