Tokyo (Japan), June 27 (EFE).- Japanese researchers have developed a facial robot with ‘living’ skin made of human cells that gives it biological functionality and expression, which could contribute to the study of the formation of wrinkles or reducing the use of animals in testing cosmetics and drugs. The team, led by industrial mechanics professor Shoji Takeuchi of the Institute of Industrial Science at the University of Tokyo, used cells and extracellular matrix to create a coating equivalent to the dermis and also managed to develop a unique structure to heal that skin. Robot that mimics human ligaments, allowing you to smile. Most current humanoid robots use silicone rubber to simulate the softness of human skin, but to make the surface of their robot more human-like the Japanese team grew human skin cells and created their ‘living’ skin, about 2 millimeters thick and 25 millimeters in diameter, with one layer of dermis and the other of epidermis.
