What if I told you that the world of terminator 2 is here? No, I'm not talking about sentient AI and apocalyptic robots. I'm speaking of liquid-based robots that can transform from solid to liquid states, change shapes at will, and jailbreak. A team of scientists has created tiny robots made of shape-shifting liquid metal that can move from a solid to a liquid state and back again, making them the most versatile robots out there. The secret to their success is Magnetoactive phase transitional matter (MPTM), magnetic fields, and gallium! By controlling the magnetic fields, these scientists can control the movement and shape of the liquid metal robots. This opens up a world of possibilities in biomedical and engineering technologies, from targeted drug delivery to circuit assembly.
