Researchers at Westlake University in China have developed a biodegradable soft robot made from pig gelatin and cotton-derived cellulose.

Unlike traditional robots, which are made from synthetic materials, this new approach naturally decomposes when no longer needed, reducing potential robotic waste.

The robot could be used in medical procedures, such as surgery or drug delivery.
