Manta rays inspire faster swimming robots and better water filters Efficient swimming and feeding make the creatures a model for human machines.

With fins like #mantas, a #softrobot created by a team of researchers at #NorthCarolinaStateUniversity and the #UniversityofVirginia improves on a previous model by reaching speeds of 6.8 body lengths per second, nearly double what its predecessor was capable of. arstechnica.com/science/2024...
