"Our proposed silicone rubber composite material offers a potential solution that could save power companies time, maintenance resources and ultimately money from prevent damage to their assets."

The skeleton of the robot is mainly made from silicone rubber that can bend and flex to conform to muscle movements.

The researchers used as a starting material a transparent silicone rubber that can be stretched and deformed.

The researchers first made casts of the teeth in silicone rubber and put them in the 3D scanner.

The sensor is primarily composed of silicone rubber, the same material used to make many skin special effects in movies.
