This project explores the integration of self-healing materials with robotics to create systems that can autonomously repair themselves. By mimicking natural healing processes, the aim is to enhance the durability and functionality of robotic components.
While artificial intelligence, robotics and computing power advance at a stunning pace, the physical interactions between such systems remain as an unsolved question.
Replacement aftermarket parts for robotics account for $400 billion a year.
This figure, comparable to the entire GDP of Belgium, could be reduced if smart materials were combined with robotics and AI to heal robotic parts or prevent damage.
The natural healing function has inspired chemists to impart similar properties to syntheti…
