Scientists create robots that 'sweat' like humans during demanding tasks to stop them overheating
Robots have been created by scientists that'sweat' like humans during demanding tasks to stop them overheating. Robotic technology is advancing every day and machines are being given more demanding tasks that generate more heat as a by product. This heat could cause the robot to malfunction if it doesn't cool down, which prompted researchers from Cornell University to look at how humans get cool. They developed a technique that allows machines to'sweat' off cooling liquid stored around the component responsible for moving and controlling the system. They developed a technique that allows machines to'sweat' off cooling liquid stored around the component responsible for moving and controlling the system It is still an early prototype with a number of problems including the sweating process causing the robot to struggle to move.
