A butterfly’s curling feeding tube has inspired scientists to create tiny ceramic scrolls that can rapidly roll and unroll when controlled by a magnet. The technology could eventually provide a new way to power the movements of extremely small robots. Researchers at the University of Stuttgart and the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research […] The post Butterfly-Inspired Ceramic Scrolls Could Help Tiny Robots Move and Lift Objects appeared first on Knowridge Science Report .
