Researchers at Yale University, US, are working on small, soft, modular robots, capable of assembling or, on the contrary, detaching parts depending on the situations and spaces in which they are operating. This could open up new perspectives in robotics.
The Faboratory is a Yale University laboratory dedicated to innovation, specialising in materials and robotics. Here, a new kind of robot has been developed. Flexible and made of silicone, these robots are capable of fusing together or self-amputating parts if necessary.
