Austria: Scientists have created a postage stamp-sized robot that can move 70 times its body size per second with electromagnetic force. This robot can crawl, float, and roll.
It can deliver drugs inside the body and perform other important functions in the human body.
Dr. Martin Keltenbrunner of Johannes Kepler University in Austria says that this is a very fast robot whose acceleration is surprising. It works with a rubber-like material and magnetic fields.
The robot, made of a flexible rubber-like material, appears in the shape of a U. Thin metal wires are passing through it. When the magnetic field of the robot turns on the electricity in the wires, the robot moves.
Interestingly, the small mini-battery providing power is installed on the robot itself. After that, the scientists created two L-shaped robots and U-shaped robots. But the robot’s feet were not ready, and for this reason, some animals of nature were seen and thus shaped like saw teeth.
Due to this innovation, the robot can now walk on paper, the floor, rubber, etc. In addition, it can spin in a circle, float in water, and even cross small obstacles. can even carry some luggage. It even supports 17 times more weight than a robot like itself.
Currently, it can run for half an hour thanks to its fully charged battery. In the next phase, the robot will be made more intelligent and automated.
