The winner of the inaugural Natural Robotics Contest not only swims through the water like a real fish — it also helps combat pollution in the process. Created by University of Surrey chemistry ...

Researchers at the Intelligent Biomimetic Design Lab at Peking University have developed a bio-signal framework showing that fish muscles do far more than generate swimming motion. In a series of ...

The Centre for Research in Robotics and Underwater Technologies (CIRTESU) at the Universitat Jaume I in Castelló has ...

When designing fish-like underwater robots, you want a means of propulsion which is both energy-efficient and reasonably speedy. A new tail-flapping system may fit the bill, paving the way for wider ...

An invention born from a contest at England's University of Surrey might be swimming us closer to cleaner oceans. Researchers have created a robotic fish that doesn’t just collect plastic pollution; ...

Inspired by fish scales, scientists have engineered a flexible skin that makes soft robotic fish tougher and more agile, absorbing hits without sacrificing speed or smooth underwater motion. In an ...
