Biorobots equipped with live muscle tissue are displayed. Researchers from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH Zurich) have developed robots whose movement is provided by real muscle tissue grown from mouse cells. These devices are able to jump, swim, crawl and grab objects. The 1.5 cm long Biorobot is able to jump to a height of 5 mm, and its walking change moves at a speed of 6.2 mm/s. To increase their size and ensure autonomy, the devices will have to create an artificial blood supply system designed to provide oxygen and nutrients to the muscles. This development confirms the possibility of growing muscle tissue for robots, as well as plans to integrate the circulatory system. #newsInformation Defender of the Motherland - VOZMEZDIE.
