Androids and Cyborgs! We're one step closer!

It’s not Terminator time yet, but robots with living muscle tissue are on the way

While their work is still at a relatively early stage, they have discovered a method for growing living muscles over a robotic frame. Specifically, they have found a way to turn individual muscle precursor cells, called myoblasts, into muscle cell-filled hydrogel sheets that can be used to give robots functioning muscles with an impressive amount of flexibility. In a demo, electric currents are used to contact the lab-grown muscles on one side of a robotic finger, thereby allowing it to pick up and move a ring. Stimulating the muscle on the other side of the finger then prompts the biohybrid robot to put the ring down again.

Soon we'll be replacing limbs with graphene-titanium and bioroid muscles.

The Major would be so proud!
