The US Army Research Laboratory is working on robots with biological muscles. Such robots will be more versatile.
Scientists intend to combine mechanisms with real muscle tissue. This could create a new class of “meaty” robots that are more versatile, adaptable, and sophisticated than those made only from non-biological components such as metal and plastic.
In the future, scientists would like to create robots that will respond to stimuli in the same way as living things. If, for example, a person steps into a rabbit hole, a real rabbit jumping out of there will change the balance and adapt on the fly so as not to fall and not to dislocate the ankle. The robot will just fall.
The scientists explained that the robots that will be used by the military will find themselves in an unknown and unpredictable environment. Therefore, they must have a quick response.
