Finally, a Robot That Wants to Build You a House Instead of Terrify You

MIT engineers are at it again, building amazing things that do amazing things. The Mediated Matter Group has been training the bot to weave intricate structures in the style of silkworms. They even named it CNSILK!

Think of the implications for design and construction! Weaving pattern that no human hands could manage.

And it’s certainly better than these big bear bots or small crawly bots or really fast running bots that I’m pretty sure are the first phase of SKYNET..
