World's 1st edible robot

Photo taken on February 28, 2024, in Chofu, western Tokyo, shows the world's first edible robot developed by Yoshihiro Nakata, associate professor at the University of Electro-Communication, and his research team. Air pressure is used to make the stick-shaped, gelatin-based gummy jiggle on the 3D-printed mug. The robot was developed to study the effects of eating food that looks like it is alive on human psychology.
