Scientists create ’shape-shifting’ metal robot which melts through bars
Engineers have designed miniature robots that rapidly and reversibly shift between liquid and solid states.
Scientists from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh took gallium, a metal that melts at room temperature, and enriched it with magnetic particles.
When an alternate magnetic field is run through the metal, it can melt, move and re-form.
