These made them bulky, loud and expensive. They also limited how easily a person could move.<\/p>\n<p>KIMM&#8217;s solution replaces the metal core of earlier coil designs with natural fiber. This shift allows the yarn to stretch more freely while keeping its power. The upgraded weaving system now produces these fabric muscles continuously, paving the way for large-scale manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p>The result is a lightweight actuator that moves naturally with the body. It can support multiple joints at once, like the shoulders, elbows and waist, without restricting movement.<\/p>\n<p>The team built the world&#8217;s first clothing-type wearable robot weighing less than 4.5 pounds. In testing, it cut <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/tech\/robotic-shorts-give-your-legs-boost-walk-farther-tire-less\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">muscle effort<\/a> by more than 40% during repetitive work.<\/p>\n<p>A smaller version designed for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/orthopedics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">shoulder support<\/a> weighs only about 1.8 pounds. In hospital trials at Seoul National University Hospital, patients with muscle weakness improved their shoulder movement by more than 57%.<\/p>\n<p>These results show that fabric muscles can do much more than help <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/tech\/job-killing-robot-learns-work-its-coming-factory-floor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">factory workers<\/a>; they can restore independence and mobility for people who need it most.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/tech\/new-robot-could-make-chores-thing-past\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>THE NEW ROBOT THAT COULD MAKE CHORES A THING OF THE PAST<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This new kind of wearable tech could one day show up in your daily routine. Picture a jacket that quietly helps lift groceries, or a work shirt that reduces strain during long shifts. For people in recovery, it could offer gentle, continuous support that makes movement easier and less painful.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/columns\/health-work\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Healthcare professionals<\/a> could see fewer injuries, while patients gain more freedom.
