One silicon wafer is claimed to yield millions of micron-scale robots
A user says standard semiconductor equipment can fabricate the robots, which they claim can move, think and communicate. They attribute the robots’ “walking” to a platinum-and-titanium materials breakthrough.
TLDR
A user claims one silicon wafer can produce millions of micron-scale robots using standard semiconductor equipment, and says the robots can move, think and communicate. They describe “walking” as largely a materials-engineering breakthrough: platinum’s electrochemistry induces surface stress, then a titanium cap makes the film bend. They also say Periodic Labs is teaching AI to do this kind of science.
