Fish robots to eat plastic Chinese scientists develop robot fish that gobble up microplastics

in the sea China’s Sichuan University Introduces Fish Robots to Remove Plastic Waste 1.3 cm baby robots have been developed. Accumulating marine microplastics pose a major threat to ecosystems. This is what fish robots eat and absorb.

The researchers said that the robots are made in the shape of the fish so that the living fish do not feel that there has been a change in the habitat. The robots are equipped with a micro plastic suction system. The researchers also informed that the robots will now be put into the sea on an experimental basis.

Fish robots have been made before, but a need was not foreseen. Researchers are studying to make various robots like this. According to Wang Yuyang, the team will develop robots that can be used in surgery and implanted in the body to treat disease.
