‘Robot blood’ powers soft-bodied jellyfish and worm robots

Even ‘Sleeping’ Volcanoes Have Large Magma Bodies Sitting Beneath Them

Large Amount Of Magma Found Beneath US Volcano Dormant For 4,800 Years

The Body Is The Battery: ‘Robot Blood’ Powers These Soft Robots

Cascade volcanoes still have large pools of magma

Hidden magma discovered beneath dormant Cascade Range volcanoes

Cornell uses ‘robot blood’ to give modular jellyfish and worm robots lifelike vigor

Magma chambers found lurking in dormant volcanoes

Magma found beneath dormant Cascade volcanoes

The research upends the long-standing belief is that active volcanoes have large magma bodies that are expelled during eruptions and then dissipate over time.

‘Embodied energy’ powers modular worm, jellyfish robots

In the same way that terrestrial life evolved from ocean swimmers to land walkers, soft robots are progressing, too, thanks to recent Cornell research in battery development and design.
