Picture of the (huge) micro robot supposed to crawl through our intestines
|
I finally found a picture of the "many-legged robot that crawls through intestines" and makes pictures of what it encounters. The article in La Repubblica says you can swallow it with a glass of water.
It looks huge to me! It measures 20 mm x 10 and researchers are trying to make it smaller. In the future, the robot will be able to make small interventions too. |

I'm surprised that it needs to have legs. You would think that just swallowing it and letting *ahem* 'nature' take it's course would be suficient? But far be it from me to let what I think get in the way of really cool technological doodads.
On a broader note, great site! Long time visitor, first time... blah, blah, blah
