UK engineers build tiny pump that could let robots move without bulky motors

UK engineers have developed a tiny pump that could revolutionize the way robots move, making them lighter and more agile. The pump, about the size of a grain of rice, uses a unique design to create a powerful jet of fluid, allowing robots to propel themselves without the need for bulky motors.

The innovation could have significant implications for the robotics industry, potentially leading to the development of smaller, more efficient robots for various applications, including those used in hazardous environments such as underwater or in space.
