Taking inspiration from nature, researchers are designing artificial muscles that can contract and elongate like real ones. As Caterina Lamuta writes, the advances in design could help make robots move more like humans.
How twisted fibers could help robots move nimbly
Fibrous materials that can reversibly twist and coil can be coaxed to contract and elongate as part of lightweight exoskeletons and other bioinspired structures.
