A brand-new engineering approach at Carnegie Mellon University is creating “designer” biological robots using human lung cells. Known as AggreBots, these microscale living machines may one day ...

Researchers at Princeton University have built a swarm of interconnected mini-robots that “bloom” like flowers in response to ...

Scientists in Japan have made a robot face covered in living, self-healing skin that can smile in a demonstration of a new technique researchers believe could help pave the way for lifelike biohybrid ...

A brand-new engineering approach to generate "designer" biological robots using human lung cells is underway in Carnegie Mellon University's Ren lab. Referred to as AggreBots, these microscale living ...

It’s a bizarre sight: With a short burst of light, a sponge-shaped robot scoots across a tiled surface. Flipped on its back, it repeatedly twitches as if doing sit-ups. By tinkering with the light’s ...
