Electricity Sparks Movement in MIT’s New Artificial Muscle Fibers

Scientists from MIT’s Media Lab have developed extremely thin strands that wrap and unravel at the flip of an electric switch. They strikingly resemble your own muscles. When grouped together, they can generate significant force and movement, all while remaining completely silent and hidden. Each electrofluidic muscle fiber is only 2 millimeters thick and weighs [...]
