Magnetic Robotics Overview

The goal of the claytronics project at Carnegie Mellon University is to create a material which can be programmed to form dynamic three dimensional shapes that can visually take on an arbitrary appearance. CMU Professor and Vice Provost for Research Peter Lee talked to EngineeringTV about Claytronics and catoms, objects that can move in three dimensions and adhere to other catoms to maintain a 3D shape.
