Swedish scientists want to explore Mars with caterpillar-like robots

Researchers at the University of Gothenburg developed a 3 cm soft robot made of polymer artificial muscles that moves like a caterpillar, reinforced with carbon nanotubes to improve durability and radiation resistance. The use of carbon nanotubes in flexible robotic actuators demonstrates a functional application for the material in extreme-environment electronics protection beyond traditional structural composites.
