!It might sound like something straight out of a sci-fi movie, but scientists have for the first time created human skin for robots!
Experts from Japan have successfully managed to cover a robotic finger with a 'living skin' that is water-repellent and can even heal itself when damaged!
Researchers believe that this human-like appearance can improve the robot's communication and make the machines more likeable.
They say that making robots look more like humans, would make it easier for people to feel that they could interact with them." Source: https://bbc.in/3tzKy2p #ArtificialSkin #Transhumanism
