Living muscle powers paper-thin robot breakthrough
Original: Living muscle gives a paper-thin robot a powerful new lease on life
Researchers have equipped a paper-thin robot with living muscle tissue, giving the tiny machine a dramatic boost in strength and movement. The biohybrid design suggests new possibilities for soft robotics in medicine and delicate tasks. Details of the team and institution behind the work remain sparse, but the fusion of biological muscle with ultra-thin robotic frames is drawing attention across the robotics field.
Why now: The novel combination of living muscle tissue with an ultra-thin robot is a striking robotics advance being reported by tech media.
