Autonomous Walking Robots A soft, monolithic, air-powered walking robot is designed for autonomous operation. Fabricated in a single step using a desktop fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printer, the robot requires no manual postassembly and becomes immediately operational with a constant-pressure air supply. Its electronics-free design ensures robust performance across outdoor terrains and aquatic environments. More details can be found in article number 2400876 by Yichen Zhai, Michael T. Tolley, and co-workers.
