A robot that crawls inside human arteries sounds like science fiction — but it’s now reality! 🤖 Scientists at the University of California San Diego have developed a soft vine robot that moves with lifelike precision through narrow and fragile environments such as blood vessels and jet engines. 🌿

Built with a liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) skin, the robot can twist, bend, and steer just like muscle fibers. By controlling heat and pressure, it navigates smoothly through tight spaces — even passing safely through models of the human aorta without causing damage.

This technology could change the future of medical surgery, industrial inspections, and soft robotics, merging biology with machines in ways never seen before.

The age of living machines has begun — and it’s softer than steel. ⚡
