PARIS — Researchers said on Monday that they had designed the first robotic leg with 'artificial muscles' — oil-filled bags that allow machines to move more like humans — that can jump nimbly across a range of surfaces.The small, disembodied robot leg was shown hopping over grass, sand and rocks in a video released alongside a new study in Nature Communications.
The Swiss-led team of researchers was inspired by the 600 muscles in the human body to create something that can walk and jump in a more fluid, agile manner.To do this, they used 'artificial muscles,' also known as electrohydraulic actuators.These soft actuators, which resemble freezer bags, are filled with oil and have electrodes attached.The way the liquid contracts and expands allows the technology to more closely mimic animal muscles.
