Researchers created the first living, self-healing robots using stem cells from frogs. Named “xenobots” after the African clawed frog (
Xenopus laevis) from which the stem cells were taken, the machines look like tiny blobs of wiggling pink flesh.
“These are novel living machines,” said Joshua Bongard, a professor of computer science at the
University of Vermont (UVM) and one of the study researchers.
“They’re neither a traditional robot nor a known species of animal. It’s a new class of artifact: a living, programmable organism,” Bongard added.
How xenobots were made
The xenobots are less than a millimeter wide, which is small enough for them to be able to travel inside human bodies. They can scuttle and swim, survive for weeks without food and work together in groups.
