Jun 25, 2024, 05:56 PM

Scientists in Japan have developed a breakthrough in robotics and bioengineering by creating a robot face covered with lab-grown, self-healing living skin tissue. This engineered skin, made from living human skin cells, grants robots the ability to show emotions, including smiling, mimicking the texture and resilience of human skin. The researchers created this as part of an experiment to develop cyborgs that can heal and feel, enhancing human-robot interactions.
