MIT engineers create artificial muscle that mimics real tissue
The breakthrough could lead to soft, wiggly robots
In context: Making robots more biologically compatible has been a challenge scientists have been tackling for years. Until now, they have primarily been able to create lab-grown muscle fibers that contract along only one plane. That works well for a robotic arm that bends at a single joint, but it falls short when it comes to more complex movements. In contrast, the human body's muscles are far more versatile thanks to fibers arranged in intricate, crisscrossing patterns.
