At Worcester Polytechnic Institute, researchers are folding plastic to make a robotic arm. WBZ-TV's Courtney Cole reports.

The arm uses origami for its construction. Lightweight plastic is folded in construction. The arm is designed to assist people with disabilities. WORCESTER — When someone envisions a robotic arm ...

WORCESTER — When someone envisions a robotic arm, they probably are thinking of a large, heavyweight tool used to assemble Ford pickups in Michigan. Or maybe they think of the do-it-all robotic ...

Researchers from Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) in Massachusetts are developing an origami-inspired soft robotic arm that could reach, hold, lift, and carry objects, which sees potential use ...

It's worth noting that even though hardware for robot platforms appears to be advancing at a steady pace (well, maybe not always ), creating a capable AI model that can pilot these robots autonomously ...

WPI said soft robotic arms tend to be weaker, more shaky, and less precise than traditional robot arms made from rigid materials.

Moft’s Dynamic Folio is a folio case for your iPad that, in essence, is similar to Apple’s own Smart Folio Case. It ...

Researchers in Robotics Engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) are developing a compact, flexible robotic arm inspired by origami. The device is designed to assist wheelchair users in ...

For example, a 5/1 ARM will have the same rate for the first five years, then can adjust each year after that—meaning the rate might go up or down, based on the market. An ARM isn’t for everyone.
