Scientists use 'curious' property of rice to create new material that could be used in robots
Researchers have created a new 'metamaterial' based on rice's property to become weaker when compressed quickly and stronger under slow pressure. "Rather than treating this phenomenon as curiosity, we turned it into a design principle," the lead author said. The metamaterial, an artificially engineered material that can exhibit extraordinary properties, could be used in "soft" robots.
