Spider-inspired magnetic soft robots could perform minimally invasive gastrointestinal tract procedures
The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a collection of organs and structures inside the bodies of humans and other animals that is responsible for the digestion of food, the absorption of nutrients and ...
Construction robots are no longer a far-off idea. They're already changing job sites by tackling repetitive, heavy, and often dangerous tasks. The latest robot comes from Australia, where a ...

A tiny spider inspired soft robot designed at the University of Macau can roll, climb, and even move upside down inside the digestive tract. Guided by magnetic fields and real time imaging, it may one ...
The BMSRs are manipulated by a 6-DOF robotic arm to generate rotating magnetic fields. They can crawl on inclined surfaces (including upside-down motion) and navigate the GI tract with endoscopic ...
