"DARPA envisions the palm-size ChemBot as a mobile robot that can traverse soft terrain and navigate through small openings, such as tiny wall cracks, during reconnaissance and search-and-rescue missions. It gets around by way of a process called “jamming,” in which material can transition between semiliquid and solid states with only a slight change in volume." Ok, so it actually sounds pretty awesome. My mind keeps thinking of the Sea-Swine from the Robin Williams film Toys, which is probably why it is so unsettling. The good news is that making large versions of these would restrict their foremost objective which is to fit into tiny cracks and crevasses, so we likely won't ever see a gargantuan model. Still, a swarm of these little blobs would be a terrifying sight, especially once they perfect the design to allow the chembots to roll at much faster speeds. |

of course if you live in South Korea apparently every home will have a robot by 2020, the UK will have its usual delay and get them by 3060. |
