A biorobotic heart that combines a biological pig heart with a silicone robotic pump is providing researchers with a new tool to understand and potentially treat heart disease.

Combining a biological heart and a silicone robotic pump, researchers created a biorobotic heart that beats like a real one, with a focus on a valve on the left side of the heart. The heart valve simulator can mimic the structure, function, and motion of a healthy or diseased heart, allowing surgeons and researchers to demonstrate various interventions while collecting real-time data.

Researchers developed a biorobotic heart that beats like a genuine one by fusing a biological heart with a silicone robotic pump.

The device uses a silicone-based muscle replacement to pump blood, and you can see it in action.
