Frog Cell ‘Xenobots’ Can Self-Assemble and Navigate Mazes – Nerdist
Researchers have created a new generation of biological robots, dubbed “xenobots,” and they’re able to self-assemble and navigate mazes.
In early 2020, a team of computer scientists from the University of Vermont and biologists at Tufts University built “biological robots” for the first time. Now, a little more than a year later, the same team’s discovered a new way to build the so-called xenobots; one that involves much less direct physical manipulation. Which is a feature that makes the resultant bio-machineswhich can self-assemble and navigate mazesall the more astounding.
Quanta Magazine reported on the new iteration of the researchers’…
