So there are issues with using this to replace animatronics. One is that microfluidic logic has low operating frequencies, as in less than 100 hertz. This makes it hard to do fine control. Issue two is that elastomers do not have a great fatigue life. Even if said robot is really cheap, if you have to replace every couple of months, things will get expensive. That being said, one could do things that would be hard to do with conventional animatronics. One could cheaply produce something with a huge amount of actuators that oscillate or go through some simple pattern. Which would be perfect for making a lovecraftian horror with thousands of writhing tentacles. Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn |
