Modular 3D-Printed Microrobots

Tiny, adaptable robots can now walk, swim, and collaborate across varied terrains thanks to a modular 3D-printed design.

A new generation of 3D-printed microrobots is breaking ground in adaptability and functionality, promising to reshape how robotics can operate across diverse real-world environments.

Developed by researchers at Seoul National University, these modular microrobots—each smaller than a centimeter—can walk on various surfaces, swim, and even collaborate in groups.

This innovation paves the way for versatile microrobotics in medicine, environmental monitoring, and beyond.

A major leap toward general-purpose micro-scale robotics.

Author's summary: Modular microrobots revolutionize robotics with adaptability.
