Scaling up biohybrid robots has been difficult due to the weak contractile force of lab-grown muscles, the risk of necrosis in thick muscle tissues, and the challenge of integrating biological ...

The structures at the bottom of this image that look like scales are actually bundles of muscles just under the skin of a rabbit. This image is a stained cross section taken under polarized light ...

Biohybrid hand gestures with human muscles Complex finger movements made possible with rolls of tendonlike human muscle tissue Date: February 12, 2025 Source: University of Tokyo Summary: A ...

Developed by the University of Tokyo and Waseda University, the hand is powered by lab-grown human muscle tissue rolled into sushi-like structures. The robotic hand can grasp objects, flex its fingers ...
