Algorithms for smart sand that sculpts itself
Above is an example a "smart pebble," outfitted with a microprocessor and magnets, that MIT researchers are using to prototype algorithms for "smart sand" that could form into any shape. Sure, it's early days. But still! Smart sand! From MIT: At the IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation in May the worlds premier [...]Original Link: http://feeds.boingboing.net/~r/boingboing/iBag/~3/b7R4ajLhNhc/algorithms-for-smart-sand-that.html
