Researchers build 'living robots' using cells scraped from frogs to clean your arteries - GoFuckYourself.com

The future of robotics could be surprisingly squishy. A team of researchers from the University of Vermont have successfully designed and built 'living' robots using different types of cells scraped from frogs.

Many of the robots we saw at CES 2020 last week took design cues from animals, but the frog-bots are quite different. As The Guardian explains, these are tiny, artificially created life-forms, made to perform a particular task such as moving along or carrying a small payload.

Such tiny robots could 'heal' themselves when damaged, avoiding the need for difficult maintenance and repair, and when they've completed their job they can simply break down organically.
