At BDML Stanford, which stands for Biomimetic Dexterous Manipulation, they evaluated how microbots could effectively pull many times their weight.
Nature’s own Hulk-like critters — ants —were the model for the tiny tech marvels, because ants can lift over 100 times their own weight. The microbots made by the Stanford team can move items over 2,000 times their own weight by using a grippy adhesive that mimics the toes of geckos!
