Meet the future of assistive robotics — robots that feel, move, and adapt like human muscles.
Researchers from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) have created a revolutionary robotic design system called PneuAct, merging machine knitting with soft pneumatic actuators to build wearable robotic devices faster and smarter than ever before.

These soft knitted robots use compressed air and conductive yarns to sense touch, pressure, and motion — allowing them to react just like real muscles. From assistive gloves that restore hand movement to exoskeleton sleeves that help bend elbows and knees, this breakthrough could transform rehabilitation, prosthetics, and soft robotics worldwide.

With PneuAct’s digital design tool, scientists can simulate every motion before production, cutting down trial and error and enabling scalable, low-cost robotic wearables that actually feel.

This is the future where robotics meets biology, unlocking limitless possibilities for human recovery and motion assistance.
