MIT Robot Folds Itself From Flat Sheet

In 2015, MIT researchers developed a centimeter sized robot that can assemble itself from a flat sheet when heated. The structure is pre designed to fold at specific points and does not rely on motors or onboard electronics. Instead, it moves using an external magnetic field that controls a built in magnet. Despite its size, it can walk, carry loads, and handle rough surfaces. This approach shows how future robots can be embedded directly into materials.
