These Tiny Liquid Robots Merge and Split Like ‘Terminator’
Inspired by biological cells, the robots are made of water encased in Teflon armor and are each about the size of a grain of rice.
Superconductivity fine-tuned for quantum tech by twisting novel ‘knob’
Researchers have created a tiny, shape-shifting robot that swims, crawls, and glides freely in the deep sea.
Developed by a team at the Beihang University in China, the robot operated at a depth of 10,600 meters in the Mariana Trench.
Using the same actuator technology, a soft gripper mounted on a submersible’s rigid arm successfully retrieved sea urchins and starfish from the South China Sea, demonstrating its capability for deep-sea exploration and specimen collection.
