As robots are slowly becoming a part of our society, researchers are experimenting with various unique technologies to make them more advanced. So recently, a team of researchers with expertise in artificial camouflage technology has developed a Chameleon-inspired skin for robots that instantly changes colors depending on the environmental temperature.
The researchers say that they initially thought of modeling the robot after an invertebrate animal such as an Octopus or a Squid. However, citing technical issues, the team decided to go with a robot based on a Chameleon itself.
So, going into the future, you might be able to see color-changing cars or clothing in shops and on the streets. However, as the technology is still in its initial stages, that day might be far away than you think.
