Robotics first: Engineering team makes artificial muscles that can lift loads 80 times their weight

Robotics first: Engineering team makes artificial muscles that can lift loads 80 times their weight; In order to achieve this, Dr Koh and his team have used polymers which could be stretched over 10 times their original length. Translated scientifically, this means that these muscles have a strain displacement of 1,000 per cent.
