A team of American engineers created a artificial skin super extensible , inspired by the skin of the octopus, which can revolutionize the world of robotics and technologies “to dress”, published today the journal of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS).
the new artificial skin can be stretched up to 500% of its original area, according to the finding of researchers from Cornell University in Ithaca island, upstate new York.
“skin octopus” opens a new horizon of possibilities in the industry called “soft electronic” in which the devices can be incorporated into clothing, such as Smartphone as a clock and multiple innovative accessories are included.
the fabric can stretch, feel the pressure and emit light, which reaches the same level of multifunctionality equal to the skin of the octopus, according to AAAS.
so, the technological world far surpasses all previous prototypes both his qualities as applications that flow from it.
the line of research focused on the so-called “optical signal” could also overturn as the new tissue is capable of emitting lights of multiple colors, from a matrix calculations that incorporates.
the prototypical robots that have been implemented skin octopus slide along the floor like a snake it were, for squeeze the potential of tissue, which expands and contracts linearly.
the resistance is guaranteed by great force being exerted on these robots, thanks to a system for detecting electromagnetic pressure reducing vulnerability .
