Researchers from MIT, along with the University of Sheffield and Tokyo Institute of Technology, have developed an incredible ingestible origami robot that unfolds from a swallowed capsule and moves inside the stomach using magnetic fields. This mini medical marvel can remove button batteries, patch wounds, and even perform internal repairs — all without surgery or wires.
Built from biocompatible materials like pig intestine and biodegradable shrink wrap, the robot is fully safe for internal use. It combines stick-slip motion and fluid propulsion to navigate precisely through stomach fluids.
Presented at the International Conference on Robotics and Automation, this creation from Prof. Daniela Rus and her team at MIT CSAIL marks a new era of non-invasive robotic healthcare. With over 3,500 button battery ingestion cases reported yearly in the U.S., this life-saving innovation could change medical treatment forever.
