Making robots that move like living things is hard. Why not make robots out of living things? Although biomimicking robots may be the wave of the future, our technology isn't quite there yet. Until we make a few major breakthroughs in shrinking and powering portable mechanical parts, there's just no way that our robots can compete with the movement we see in swimming bacteria or rippling muscles.
