#9 – Robo slug
If I were to mention cyborg sea slugs, you’d likely assume I was about to tell you about the latest midnight horror film festival I went to, and you’d be justified in that response – but you’d be wrong. The “biohybrid” robots, created by researchers at Cleveland’s Case Western Reserve University by combining sea slug parts with 3D printed components, are very real, but don’t worry, they’re not the products of a mad scientist intent on zombifying the masses. In fact, they have the potential to do a lot of good for humans and the environment.
