New York, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News – 30th August, 2016) : A team of Harvard University researchers with expertise in 3-D printing, mechanical engineering, and micro-fluidics has developed the first autonomous entirely soft robot.
This small, 3D-printed robot 'Octobot' could pave the way for a new generation of such machines.
The palm-sized machine’s exterior is made of silicone. And whereas other soft robots have had at least a few hard parts, such as batteries or wires, the Octobot uses a small reservoir of hydrogen peroxide as fuel.
