The Shuji Hashimoto Laboratory at Waseda University in Japan has created a chemical robot.

This robot looks nothing like the Terminator, but instead looks like a slice of a mango.

The gel material is autonomous and moves without any electrical stimulation. That’s right folks, no batteries needed!

It moves slowly, somewhat like an inchworm and can also be used to perform calculations.
