Necrobotics: Dead Spiders Reincarnated as Robot Grippers
- alephaleph 4y agodon't open this link during a meeting, the header image is freaky
- dieselgate 4y agoNot sure if I read this exact article but read another post on this topic yesterday. This is pretty goofy (and has its elements of cool). I’m not sure it’s really that novel other than the shock factor? Machines like backhoes already use hydraulic lines for actuation (yes it’s very cool spider legs actuate in a similar way). I don’t know, am not in research myself (but my SO studies fruit flies). Just everything about the title here “necro”, “reincarnated”, “robot” just seems sensational when the setup seems pretty straightforward.
- dieselgate 4y agoCan’t find edit on mobile but believe it should actually be “pneumatic” and not “hydraulic lines”, my mistake
- HomeDeLaPot 4y agoOh yeah, I remember cousin Jimmy, always dissecting toads and weird sh*t like that. Wonder what he's up to nowadays?
