Gel gains life-like motion Researchers from the University of Cambridge in England and Lehigh University have shown that it is possible to make a strip of hydrogel mimic the movements of a snail, inchworm and snake. The ability could lead to new motion techniques for tiny machines, including robots, and for manufacturing processes that involve moving substances across surfaces. |
