A futuristic robot that emerges from liquid metal and takes on a human-likexo walletappearance. It can also change shape as you like. May not exist only in The Terminator movies (The Terminator) or "Iron Man" that has been famous in many sectors only.
Recently, a team of engineers from the Chinese University of Hong Kong and Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, China. succeeded in inventing a miniature robot the size of a Lego block which can change from solid metal to liquid state and can still be formed back into a solid state again Makes it able to "break out" easily by dissolving itself to flow through the bars of the cage.
details of this research Just published in the journal Matter, the engineers who invented the robot say that It can change states and shapes in various ways. In order to be useful in various tasks, whether exploring narrow areas or blind corners that are hard to reach Assembly of circuits or miniature electronic devices or even medical tasks such as repairing internal organs and delivering drugs to target tissues.
This robot can switch between solid and liquid states. It's a step up from the development of soft robots, which, despite being flexible, are difficult to maneuver using soft structures. also lacking strength and not having much energy to work
A team of Chinese engineers therefore applied the physiological principles of sea cucumbers and giant squids. These animals can adjust individual tissues to be soft or hard to change the shape they like. Make them go into a narrow place to live or effectively hide and dodge enemies.
