In California, engineers from Stanford University built tiny robots, who can climb walls and can attract more than 100 times their weight. Their feet have a special material with many tiny nails, inspired by the foot of the lizard.

For example, the robot called “μTug” and weighs 12 grams, can draw an object 2.000 times heavier. Larger sizes robot like this could be very useful for constructions, but rescue operations. This technology will be presented at the International Conference on Robotics and automation next month in Seattle.

   12 gr x 2,000 = 24,000 gr = 24 Kgr. Slowly the weight, 24 kg lift anyone.

     Διαγαλαξιακε μπετοβλακα ελπίζω να παίρνεις προφυλάξεις για να διασφαλιζεται οτι δεν θα αναπαραξεις ΠΟΤΕ το ειδος σου…

       Ακόμη και στην εξυπνάδα σου δεν μπορείς να σκεφτείς κάτι δικό σου.Αν εγώ είμαι διαγαλαξιακός μπετόβλακας, εσύ που με αντιγράφεις τότε τί είσαι…Dr. Defr;

         To katalabeis the size of blakeias that mentions the xanadiabase your defr original post. Αν και τοτε δεν τα καταφερεις αντικατεστησε το 12gr με 90kg μπας και αντιληφθεις τα μεγέθη…

         Diaswsis missions where there is usually motion comfort, such as e.g.. rubble from earthquake, The tractive force is enormous for a volume of 12 grams. Akoma k in building construction would be useful an relevant robots Let's say some kgr to draw something in aprosito point to kindynepsoyn people. Giiidiiiiiii e gidiiiiiii
