The future of War Porn: Shape-Shifting Killer Robots [krakatoa]

I don't know whether to hide under my bunk, push my bunk against the door, or light it on fire, hoping the smoke from my bunk will throw them off my scent.

But I'll definitely be somewhere around my bunk when I hear them coming for me, because WarPorn in action is always sexy.

Soft and squishy chemical robots will one day squeeze through tight spots then expand to 10 times larger, offering an advantage over rigid robots. Once a mission is complete, a chembot would biodegrade.

Look, I'd love to add a bunch of interesting speculation here about the possible uses, but I've got to make a tissue and hand-lotion run.

Before I go though, I'll just note that they already have made prototypes in the lab. A mock-up is demonstrated after the break.
