The cliché sound of whirling servos and stiff movements need to be the primary focus on the next generation of robotics. Advances in conductive nylon materials that can constrict or expand by electrical impulses could lead to quieter, more lifelike robotics with smooth motion. Then we simply use nylon technology to replicate our own human muscular system. So, what’s my idea? Building meccas (to steal a term from AI) that move as quietly as we do.
