机械的未来：可以像动物那样移动

想象一下，一艘船通过像鱼一样摆动“尾巴”前进。TED Fellow 罗伯特·卡奇曼（Robert Katzschmann）的研究团队就设计了这么一款机械：利用人造、安静的肌肉模仿自然动作的软体机器人。他给我们展示了对机械的展望，它们会拥有令人眼花缭乱的新形态，由更柔软、更仿生的材料制成，还可以探索世界的未知之域。

Modern machines rely on rigid motors that create noise and disturb both people and wildlife. By mimicking nature’s soft, silent movements, engineers have built robots like a fish-shaped device that swims without propellers. Artificial muscles made from flexible materials now allow these robots to move fluidly and interact safely with their environment. Innovations like this could lead to biodegradable, self-healing machines that reduce pollution and fit seamlessly into the natural world.
