In 2019, engineers from the Georgia Institute of Technology developed a two-millimeter-long robot, dubbed “micro-bristle-bot,” that weighs less than a teaspoon of salt. The robot was designed to potentially save human’s lives by entering the body to repair tissues. Most robots run on electricity, but vibrations power micro-bristle-bot. It’s 3D-printed...
