Magnetic soft robots offer promise in biomedicine due to their wireless actuation and rapid response, but current fabrication methods are complex and have limited cellular compatibility. A new, contactless bioassembly strategy using hydrodynamic instabilities is introduced, enabling customizable, centimeter‐scale robots.

Torque‐Transmitting Architected Metamaterials for Flexible and Extendable Tubular Robotics
Soft and continuum robots commonly rely on fluid, tendon, or rod‐based power transmissions, to control robotic form and actuation. This study presents an architected structure, based on patterned straight‐line mechanisms, that enables simultaneous bending, extending, and torsionally rigid (BETR) transmission.

Crater Observing Bioinspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA)
Crater Observing Bio‐inspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA) is a modular, snake‐inspired robot that addresses the mobility challenges of extraterrestrial exploration sites such as Shackleton Crater. Incorporating snake‐like gaits and tumbling locomotion, COBRA navigates both uneven surfaces and steep crater walls.

Leveraging spinning‐induced localized suction, the spinner device enables ultra‐efficient removal of kidney stone fragments, capturing a larger quantity of fragments from distances exceeding 20 mm. The spinner significantly improves the efficiency and effectiveness of stone fragment removal by reducing operative time, increasing stone‐free rates, and ...
