We have covered plenty of sophisticated robots in the past. This origami robot developed by a team of MIT researchers is quite special though. The printable robot folds itself up from a flat sheet of plastic when heated. The robot can carry objects, clear obstacles, swim, and execute a variety of tasks. When the tasks are done, the robot dissolves itself into a liquid.

This is the first robot we have seen that completes a full life cycle from birth to death. The robot has a small magnet embedded in its body, so it can be programmed using a magnetic field.
