I guess these are sexually active robots? So, other robots are celibate? đ

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers are building swarms of tiny robots that have built-in intelligence, allowing them to build structures, vehicles, or even larger versions of themselves.
The subunit of the robot, which is being developed at MITâs Center for Bits and Atoms, is called a voxel and is capable of carrying power and data.
âWhen weâre building these structures, you have to build in intelligence,â MIT Professor and CBA Director Neil Gershenfeld said in a statement. âWhat emerged was the idea of structural electronics â of making voxels that transmit power and data as well as force.â
The voxels makeup both the robot itself as well as the components of the thing being built, allowing them to work together on larger structures.
âIt could build a structure, or it could build another robot of the same size, or it could build a bigger robot,â CBA doctoral student Amira Abdel-Rahman said in a statement.
While the research is promising, it will likely be years before we see self-replicating robot swarms, according to Gershenfeld.
