A new robotic fish is energized by a circulatory system that mimics an animal that uses blood for circulation.
While the brain was by no means brought back to consciousness, it did bear living characteristics. This was done by connecting the brain's vascular system to a pump-like apparatus, which synthetically mirrors the natural circulation of blood while using a specially developed solution to preserve brain tissue. In the case of this robotic fish, movement is quite slow. The fish is less designed for a specific functionality than as an engineering step toward better robotic autonomy.
The robotic fish named SoFi was developed by MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and can be controlled with sound. During test dives in the Rainbow Reef in Fiji, SoFi was able to swim down 15 meters for around 40 minutes at a time. “We are excited about the possibility of being able to use a system like this to get closer to marine life than humans can get on their own.” SoFi is able to swim close to real fish because it propels themselves forward with a method that mimics the movements of real fish.
