Ensonhaber.com Son Dakika - Spider silk could be used as muscle for robots

#artificialintelligenceMar-9-2019, 13:08:47 GMT

A research team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have found that spider silk contains a property that could be useful in the development of artificial, robotic muscle. When humidity goes up, the fibers of a spider's web suddenly become taught with supercontraction. The silk also twists at the same time, giving a strong torsional force. They also believe this ultra-fine but durable material could one day be used as an artificial muscle.
