Here are tiny elastic robots that can change shape depending on their surroundings. Scientists at EPFL and ETH Zurich modeled these after bacteria. The robots optimize their movement to get to hard-to-reach areas in the human body.

Smart microrobots that can adapt to their surroundings

These bio-compatible robots are flexible and can swim through fluids and pass through narrow vessels. As the researchers explain:

They are made of hydrogel nanocomposites that contain magnetic nanoparticles allowing them to be controlled via an electromagnetic field.

 

Robots like these will be used in the future to revolutionize drug delivery. More info is available here.

There is no better way to learn electronics and robotics than building and programming your own robots. BIMThoughts has put together a guide that shows you how to build your own Raspberry Pi controlled scissor lift. It relies on the PI unit to turn on the LX-16A servo to raise and lower the lift. The code is written in Python.

Surgery robots have been around for a while. They are already being used for minimally invasive surgeries. Researchers at Nottingham Trent University are taking it to the next level by building a robot that can perform spinal surgery. The system consists of datum and tooling robots.

These robots can be locked to a particular vertebrae and drill on either side where surgeons would place the pedicle screws. Professor Philip Breedon and his team are behind this system.
