Scientists Create Smiling Robot Face Made Of Living Human Skin Cells

Scientists in Japan have created a smiling face from living human skin. The smiling face can also be used as a robot face. This smiling face made of skin is attracting attention worldwide. It can be attached to the face of a humanoid robot. Apart from smile, other facial expressions can also appear in it.

Researchers at Tokyo University have prepared it using a living tissue. Actually, this tissue was prepared in the lab using human cells. According to BBC report, researchers have said that with this development, self-healing skin can also be invented in the future which will not tear or cut easily. Cell Reports Physical Science This study has been published in a journal named. This skin is very soft and can also repair itself. It looks like real skin.

Apart from this, the researchers also tried to create ligaments that connect the skin to the inner tissue. To use it in the robot, small holes were first made. After that a gel containing collagen was applied on them. After that this skin was pasted on the face of the robot. This new product was very flexible and the skin was not tearing even when the robot moved the face.

According to Professor Shoji Takeuchi, who led the research, this discovery has revealed a way through which skin can be easily connected with complex structures in the future. However, this new product is still in its initial phase. It has to undergo many tests which can take years. Only after that it can be used commercially.

Researchers say that this development can also be used to prevent skin aging in the future. That is, human skin can be prevented from aging quickly. It will also prove useful in cosmetic and plastic surgery.
