3D printing strategy can upgrade soft robots and extend their lifespan

^{Published on 2025-01-16 07:02:34 - MSN}

Over the past decades, robotic systems have been rapidly advancing, fueled by the continuous introduction of more advanced electronics, mechanical components and software solutions. As a result, robots can easily become obsolete and outdated as newer systems emerge.

The article from MSN discusses a new strategy in 3D printing technology aimed at enhancing the capabilities and longevity of soft robots. Researchers have developed a method where soft robots can be upgraded by printing new functional components directly onto existing structures. This approach not only allows for the addition of new features but also facilitates repairs, thereby extending the operational life of these robots. The technique involves using advanced materials that can bond effectively with the original robot parts, ensuring durability and functionality. This innovation could lead to more sustainable and cost-effective applications in various fields, including healthcare, where soft robots are increasingly used for their adaptability and safety in human interaction.
