Floppy Starfish Bot Soft-shelled robots have popped up from time to time, but none perhaps have been as amazing as this new innovation from Harvard . It’s a super-floppy starfish-esque robot that can crawl, maneuver, and wiggle its way along the ground…and can also squirm its way into tight spaces and even through tiny holes. Just like the worms of your squirmiest nightmares! Enjoy! The robot is just five inches long, pneumatically powered and was designed to replicate the motions of a real sea creature
