Cornell’s robot jellyfish and worm are powered by a hydraulic fluid battery
Researchers at Cornell University on Monday showcased a pair of bio-inspired robotics running on a hydraulic fluid-powered battery. The redox flow battery
Cornell uses ‘robot blood’ to give modular jellyfish and worm robots lifelike vigor
Their new worm and jellyfish robots are built around the transformative concept of “embodied energy,” where integrating the power source into the robot’s structure reduces w
Cornell’s Jellyfish Robot: Energy-Efficient, Nature-Inspired Robotics
Researchers at Cornell University are trying to develop robots that look and move more like living organisms. This is done by integrating energy storage directly into their structures. Thus they are called “embodied energy,” this makes robots more efficient and lighter and give an organic look to the robot.
“Embodied Energy” Powers Modular Worm and Jellyfish Soft Robots
Cornell researchers developed soft robots that use built-in batteries as both power sources and structural components, mimicking evolution from swimming to crawling. A jellyfish robot moves via a redox flow battery.
