MIT's Milli-Motein: Things Just Got a Lot More Interesting

Researchers at MIT's Center for Bits and Atoms have created milli-motein -- a manifestation of raw digital data that could create transformable robots. However, instead of pop-culture robots that can transform into giant cars or airplanes, these could result in material changes that might one day transform the world. The project, led by Neil Gershenfeld and funded by a grant from DARPA, is still in its early days. It isn't so much aimed at solving a problem as it is exploring multi-motein's potential usefulness.
