The tiny robot has the ability to pull objects 100 times heavier

This robot experiment takes the idea from the gecko's ability to climb.

Little robot

Researchers at Stanford University have invented some tiny robots that can pull objects 100 times their mass. The University's most recent experiment is based on the ability of the geckos to climb. The legs of these robots have a kind of binder that can stick to the wall when pulling heavy objects and can also release the binder properly when needed to move.

In the video below, viewers will see how these robots behave in the same way as the animal's natural life - step by step. A 9-gram heavy robot can pull objects weighing about 1 kilogram , in addition to a tiny 20-millimeter robot capable of pulling a paper clip (about 500 milligrams)

The most impressive robot is called μTug , and it has to be said that a superhero robot has the ability to pull objects up to 2,000 times heavier. This can be compared to a human being capable of moving a blue whale, according to a Stanford researcher.
