The worlds first living bots of stem cells from African clawed frogs (Xenopus laevis) that could be directed to do certain tasks—were disclosed by a team of scientists early last year.

Programmable organic robots known as xenobots are able to self-replicate, which is a real wow science.

This method of reproduction is known as kinematic replication and is common in molecules, but has never been seen in cells or organisms.

This method of reproduction is known as kinematic replication and is common in molecules, but has never been seen in cells or organisms.

Xenobots, a type of programmable organism made from frog cells, can replicate by spontaneously sweeping up loose stem cells, researchers say. This could have implications for regenerative medicine.

By clustering free-floating stem cells together, 'xenobots' can assemble baby bots

These scientists say they’ve created the world’s first living robots that can reproduce

Xenobots, the world's first living robots, can now reproduce in a manner never seen before in history, US scientists have revealed.

Built from frog stem cells, these biological robots seek out resources to build more of themselves — based on an AI design.
