Lab-grown muscles power robots
Engineers have developed robots powered by lab-grown muscle tissue instead of conventional motors, according to an Electronics Weekly report. The biohybrid approach uses cultured muscle cells that contract to drive movement, pointing to softer, more adaptable machines. The development is drawing attention for its potential in medical devices and flexible robotics.
Why now: Advances in biohybrid robotics that merge living tissue with machines typically spark wide interest.
