Scientists frequently use biology as inspiration for robots, resulting in devices that swim like zebrafish, fly like birds, and grow like vines. Some teams have gone beyond mere inspiration, creating “biohybrid” robots that directly combine living tissue with artificial materials. One contraption combines rat muscle tissue with steel, while another integrates fungal cells with electronics.
Now, the authors of a new study have harnessed the properties of green algae to create microscopic robotic swarms that change their shape and size in response to light.
