Robot Octopus Just Keeps Swimming

When you swim in the ocean what comes to mind? The creature’s larking in the deep blue such as sharks, jellyfish, or what about a robot octopus?

That’s right. Researchers built a robot octopus that is not only able to swim in the ocean; it’s able to carry around objects in its tentacles at the same time.

Oh yeah, and when it’s not doing that it swims the Mediterranean freely. Not a bad life for a robot octopus. But don’t let this robot fool you, it’s not the first out there.

Researchers have actually created enough under water robots to support a whole water polo team like the robot fish, the robot jellyfish, and even the robot crab.

So next time your in the ocean be sure you watch out for robots!
