Do you want the T-800 Model 101 Terminator, because the journal of Science Robotics is showing us how you get the T-800 Model 101 Terminator. Given these robotic fingers are grown from rat muscles, we can probably just call Orkin instead of Sarah Connor.



To grow their robot’s muscles, they layered hydrogel sheets filled with myoblasts—rat muscle cells—on a robotic skeleton. The grown muscle is then stimulated with an electric current that forces it to contract.
